Green gifts for grads
June 14, 2008
It’s that time of year again when - from coast to coast - gowns are donned, Pomp and Circumstance plays, and flocks of caps soar triumphantly into the air.
Whether buying gifts for someone completing high school, trade, college or graduate school, giving green lets grads know that you care about them and the future they’ve worked so hard to prepare for.
Here are a few of our suggestions for great green gifts for grads:
- Chic handbag made from a classic book (handmade)
- Tree-free journal made from coffee, banana, mango and more
- 100% recycled Laptop Green Sleeve
- 100% recycled messenger bag
- To-Go Ware bamboo utensil set
- Solar backpack
- Financial assistance (start a Roth IRA, pay his/her first loan payment or buy a US Savings Bond)
- Sewing machine and some vintage and/or sustainable fabric
- Stainless steel coffee cup
- Zipcar membership
- Green cleaning kit filled with homemade cleaning supplies
- Membership to Better World Club (auto club)
- Solar iPod and cell phone charger
- Memberships to organizations such as Greenpeace or Sierra Club
