I am always happy to feature lovely gifts that do good, from companies devoted to giving back some of their profits to charity.
This holiday season, my pick is kushi-riki, a new brand for kids from the creators of Candygrind and CG Habitats, offering snowboard apparel and accessories.
According to their stated mission, kushi-riki is committed to meeting the needs of children around the world.
Here’s how they put it: We craft premium products for children – and then donate one hundred percent of our healthy profit goals to thoughtful partners who serve them. With a focus on health and education, our partner organizations work relentlessly to ensure all children have the lives and opportunities they deserve.
And just in case you’re wondering, kushi-riki means “to share” in Swahili.
Currently, their non-profit partner is a.k.a. Hope. This non-profit provides housing, education, food and healthcare to children, many of them orphaned, who live in Naguru slums on the outskirts of Kampala, Uganda.
Kushi-riki gloves and mittens are constructed of a polyester shell with a waterproof membrane. A zipper makes them easy to get on and off (as well as keeping the wrists snug, to keep snow out and warmth in), while a faux fur lining makes them extra comfy-cozy.
A side zipper makes getting the mittens on and off easy, and the gloves and mittens are lined with the soft faux fur.
To facilitate this post, I received samples of kushi-riki product. This product has not been used and will be given away via this post. As always, all opinions are my own and are exactly what I would tell my family and friends.

Our guy would love these!!
Not only do they look good, but he’ll like how easy they are to put on!
I am interested in the boy’s pack.

I would like either since I have a son and daughter.

I know a certain 9 year old boy who could wear those gloves out this winter!
Good luck to you and him! Enjoy the winter!
These gloves looks so warm. Maybe they should make adult sized too LOL.
They do — just they’re other company — Candygrind/CG Habitats!
These sets look perfect for the cold winter ahead. I would love both sets. Thanks for the giveaway!

I first commented that the girl’s prize pack would be awesome, but because of the sizes, I need to go with the boy’s prize pack!
