This giveaway is one of our favourite traditions at The Gift Designers!  Thanksgiving is October 12th and we have some beautiful designs for the holidays. Check them out HERE !  ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________   Each month a different designer picks a Local Charity of the Month. Our guests are given the opportunity to make a donation to this charity when they order gifts online.  This month is my pick and I chose the EvenStart for Children Foundation.  EvenStart has been providing service to children from backgrounds of trauma, for over 20 years. The Evenstart Foundation has partnered with local Calgary artists to create a line of Silk, Cashmere and Pashmina scarves. With each purchase, 100% of the proceeds go to Evenstart to assist with the costs of a playground at our facility for children from backgrounds of trauma. They also prepare Holiday Hampers for almost 200 families each season.  You can go to their website to donate or shop their online scarf collections.  https://evenstartfoundation.org/   We love making a difference and partnering with organizations that have an awesome impact on our world!     Happy Thanksgiving from Courtney on behalf of all of us at The Gift Designers
