Old Navy
Old Navy encourages its stores to partner with local charities to address issues that matter most to their communities. For instance, over 200 Old Navy stores partnered with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in 2014 to raise money for childhood cancer research. The stores helped raise over $700,000.

Warby Parker
If your teenager wears glasses, start buying frames and lenses from Warby Parker. The eyeglasses company will donate one pair of glasses to charity for every pair customers purchase. Warby Parker’s outreach program also provides eye exam and sales training to men and women who live in developing companies. This helps low-income people around the world access affordable glasses while giving their communities a long-term path toward financial stability.
TOMS
TOMS also follows the buy-a-pair, give-a-pair donation model. When you buy your teenager a pair of TOMS shoes, the company will donate a pair to someone who can’t afford them. TOMS also supports efforts that improve access to clean water, prevents bullying, and provides a safe place for mothers to give birth.
Teenagers can go through shoes quickly. You might as well give your money to a retailer that takes its charitable commitments seriously.
Where you shop really can make a difference in the world. As the parent of a teenager, you probably shop a lot. Take advantage of these opportunities to save some money and support causes that matter to you.
