I’m only givin’ you two different orgs that’re offering gift baskets — cuz really, these 2 have so many gift baskets that there’s something for everyone :)

The Garment Worker Center in LA’s offeringa buncha fair trade, anti-sweatshop gift packages this season, including:

* Bath Pamper Kit
* Hot & Spicy Cooking
* Start The Day in a Gourmet Way
* Kid Special Basket
* Stress Recovery
* Starving Artist Care Package

What might a package include? The Starving Artist Care package has a relaxing incense set, soup mixes from the Women’s Bean Project, and recycled paper journals from Mr. Elli Pooh, which I wrote ’bout here.

Global Exchange offers even more baskets. There’s the expected, like a basket for the sweetheart, mom, dad, baby, kids, or teen, for the Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, gourmet, or snack lover, or for the fair trade conscious. But GX offers a lotta unexpected baskets:

* Holiday, Illumination, and Peace on Earth
* Event: Wedding Day, Housewarming, Get Well, Bon Voyage, Birthday, Graduation
* Work: Star Employee or Office Gang
* Other: Jungle Fun, Women Around the World, Harvest Gift Basket, Bath & Beauty

A sample: The Get Well gift basket includes fair trade, organic hot cocoa, chocolate bar, and tea, plus a hand-crafted kaisa grass basket and mug, an eye pillow.

Happy Holidays to the basket cases :)
