Hey Rebels! Today we are bringing you a throwback episode and one of our faves. We can't thank you enough for your continued support of our podcast!

In this episode Caroline and Kelly talk all about the importance of giving back. This is actually how Caroline and Kelly met! Kelly and Caroline talk about how important giving back is to them and their biz. Kelly wanted to continue her love and passion for teaching. By giving to Pencils of Promise each month she is working towards building a school! Caroline continues her passion by giving to a non profit organizations. Her inner hippy came out after her Colorado trip. After her trip she decided to use recycled paper and products for her biz and she wanted to plant trees. Now her donations go toward an organization that plants trees and educates people for “green jobs.” There is also an option of adding planting a tree at checkout when you shop with Caroline!

Recycle your materials you use to produce your products or use in your office

Volunteer in your community

Donating items for various causes/events

Being a mentor

Give back at what you are good at-business specific-get creative

Quote Love From Kelly & Caroline:

It makes a difference when you are doing something you love -Caroline

When you give back, you are in total control -Caroline

I was single handedly killing all the trees -Caroline
