Give Accessories, founded by Christine Valenti in 2004, specializes in form, function AND philanthropy.

Weekender bag $688 as seen in Oprah's O List, People, Lucky and InStyle - 10% goes to revolving charities
Valenti designs gorgeous bags, wallets and travel accessories, donating 10% of profits from the sale of ALL of its merchandise to an ever-changing roster of charities. Each month, Give features “Organizations We Love,” highlighting a particular charity of interest on their website and offering limited products with 50% of each item going directly to that charity.Why? Because Valenti believes that “being chic means not just carrying the bag that you love but also supporting the organizations you love.”
Give is a brand that is quickly becoming popular amongst celebrities including Jessica Alba (as seen in photo), Rachel Bilson, Sheryl Crow, and Christina Ricci.
