2020's been a doozy and we think everyone deserves the best holiday season ever! We got an early gift when Joe Biden and Kamala Harris won the election, and in the spirit of hope, the holidays and to celebrate electing the first female, black and Asian Vice President in US history (and a new President too, wahoo!!) we hope you enjoy our annual gift guide, a list of our favorite gifts that give back to worthy causes, like UltraViolet, The Dream Corps, Sunrise Movement, Earthjustice and many more organizations. Thank you for making it all possible and we hope you find some great gifts in our shop! ~Team CAN

2. Our favorite 2020 gifts are beautiful, useful and help keep everyone safe! Face masks are shaping up to be essential holiday gifts this year and our holiday mask collection comes with everyone's favorite Spread Compassion, Bee Kind and We Can Do It! Vote designs plus variety packs like Mask Up Everyone that comes with fifteen masks so you can give them to friends and family. The best part is that we give a free mask to an essential frontline worker through our partnership with Coworker.org, and we're proud to say we've donated over 5,000 masks already! Each mask also helps support the independent artist who designed it, so head to CAN for our face mask collection and you'll be doing a world of good!
3. Congrats to these two crazy kids! Kamala & Joe symbolize the optimism, confidence and hope everyone needs right now and our action figure collection is here for all of it!
