I love the mission of five ACCESSORIES ""to create income generating programs while donating a large portion of sales to charity"". This is exactly what they do for the city of Chicago, five ACCESSORIES works with StreetWise of Chicago and its vendors to create jobs. The vendors at StreetWise make five's ""Off the Street"" product line, which is a collection of jewelry and accessories made from recycled street refuse - from the streets of Chicago! Chicagoan's need to support this local business because they are supporting people right in our own city.
I also love five's new handbag collection from Cambodia. The products are made from recycled mosquito netting. Not only are they eco friendly, which is good for the planet, but they are sturdy, hold up well under wear, make great school bags and commuting easier.
Highly recommend this company for its mission and customer service, as well as their fabulous products that make wonderful socially conscious gifts.
