As socially responsible giving grows in popularity, many readers find themselves wondering which products actually impact society or where they can find them. Look no further than the World Vision’s Gift Catalog.

The 2015 World Vision Gift Catalog contains more than 250 poverty-fighting gifts, ranging in price from $16 to $39,000, that improve the quality of life for struggling children and families in the U.S. and around the world. This holiday season, you can give help where it is most needed and receive beautiful handcrafted jewelry for themselves or their loved ones. There are gifts for all budgets. All of them are made by communities around the developing world and the artisanship is simply stunning!

Here are some of my favorites:

The Balinese necklace happens to be a personal favorite of mine because World Vision sent me a sample necklace so I could check out the quality of the gift items.  I think this necklace is quite stunning! I took some photos so you can all get a closer look:
