'Tis the season for gift giving and spreading love. For some reason, the holiday spirit makes everyone feel some kind of way wanting to give, give, give. While you're buying gifts for your family and friends, think about buying a product that supports local charities and causes. Just by purchasing specific products over others, you can not only give to your loved ones but to someone in need, as well.

Check out five products that not only are great items but give back to charities all over the world.

1. Passion Planner

This one is for all you organized freaks out there. It's about to be a new year, which means new years resolutions. New year, more organized me, right? Well, with passion planner, this is a great item that'll help you and your friends to just that. Passion Planner is an amazing organizer that has some amazing features. I've been a loyal customer of Passion Planner for over a year now, and I'll never turn back! The planner allows you to focus on not only your to-do list for the week, but your week, month, and yearly aspirations and goals.

The best part? For every Passion Planner purchased, another planner gets donated. They've already donated over 240,000 planners to schools, organizations, and individuals alike. Each of their planners represents a different cause, as well; from breast cancer awareness to animal shelters to domestic violence.

Every time you buy a LifeStraw product, a child in a developing country will receive a water supply for an entire year.

You read that right. LifeStraw is known for their filtered straws and water bottles that eliminate any bacteria, parasites, or viruses in the water. I highly recommend this product for anyone who is outdoor-centric, or someone looking to give back to a kid in a developing country.

3. Brave Bands

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
