11 Companies Donating To Women's Charities For IWD

Friendly reminder: International Women's Day is on March 8, and it's the perfect reminder to put your hard-earned dollars toward products and companies that put their hard-earned dollars toward women's organizations.

It's worth noting that supporting these brands doesn't necessarily need to happen on March 8: While some are gearing their giving efforts around the days surrounding International Women's Day itself, others donate proceeds to their chosen charities year-round. In fact, if you're participating in the Women's March's initiative A Day Without A Woman, they're encouraging women not to shop at all (with the exception of companies run by women or minorities and small businesses).

For the most part though, these items are available right now, and they'll be around after International Women's Day, too. (And if you do need to shop on March 8, supporting one of these companies is a good compromise.) From totes to statement tees to sweet bracelets, they can be the perfect gifts for the amazing women in your life (including yourself).

Here are some of the awesome items and cool companies that are putting a portion of their proceeds toward charities that support women in different ways around the globe.
