2023 Holiday Gift Guide
Dear Beloved Community,
In the midst of global challenges, our communities find solace in cultural traditions during the darkest months, weaving threads of hope, light, remembrance, and togetherness.
This holiday season, Embracing Equity extends a gift to you: a guide supporting your values as you shop. We hope you enjoy the delightful items below - my personal fave is the courageous and inspiring memoir, “They Called Us Exceptional” and the cozy Mental Health Liberation sweater.
Warm wishes for a season filled with purposeful giving,
Daisy
