Why customize? Depending on your reason for gifting, customization can add a valuable connection between your recipient and your company.
Your reason for gifting differs each time. We get that. That’s why our team is so good at finding the best decoration options for each unique project. (We get excited about cool customizations. We’re nerdy like that.)
Decoration is an extraordinary way to bond team members with matching high-quality apparel (that they will actually wear), commemorate a special event, and send to clients to remind them of your company’s value.
You worked hard to make your business remarkable. We’ll help you show that through gifting.
They're not just blankets. They're heirlooms. Each Trek Light blanket is one-of-a-kind; handwoven on a traditional loom so that each gift you give is truly unique. Made from 100% recycled material, these blankets get better and softer with every use. Now that's a gift idea we can cozy up to.

Most of the problems our world faces needs our collective creativity and bravery to think differently.
- Julia Correia, Water for People
The other day, while sipping my morning cup of coffee, I thought about things I often take for granted.
The fresh water, straight from the tap that I boiled to make my coffee. The ice cubes I pulled from my freezer to cool my drinking water (which my refrigerator conveniently makes). The clean water that I brushed my teeth with.
My hot morning shower. Using a toilet, in a private room. Washing my face with clean water. Washing my hands after taking out the trash. Washing my dish in the sink after breakfast.
The list just kept going on and on.
Fresh water is so readily accessible to us that we have never known what our lives would look like without it. In 2014, when the water crisis happened in Flint, Michigan, the United States got a real glimpse into what would happen if our water infrastructure failed. And yet, many people all over the world have gone their entire lives without easy access to clean water - even for their most basic needs.
Water For People is working to help communities worldwide meet their essential water and sanitation needs. When I first met Julia Correia, the Senior Business Development Manager at Water For People, her excitement radiated when speaking about her work. It’s not every day that I get to connect with someone who is so genuinely passionate about what they do.
During our meeting, Julia explained that Water For People is working toward so much more than clean drinking water. They are working with communities to help:
•Reduce time people have to spend walking to fill water jugs each day (so they can go to school, take care of family, rest)
• Increase basic hygiene practices with hand washing stations
• Give women & girls clean, private spaces when menstruating (many girls drop out of school when they get their periods)
• Maintain pumps and toilets in communities
• Train mechanics within communities for long-term water maintenance repairs
• Create sanitary services for hospitals, medical systems, and schools
• Empower local governments to invest more funds into their water infrastructure
• Monitor improvements to ensure everything continues to run smoothly
• Reduce waterborne diseases like cholera and diarrhea
• Improve safety when people need a bathroom during the night
It’s a good reminder that this also means more children grow up healthy and happy. This is the power of water. Helping people have access to clean water changes everything. From their personal lives, to their families, their communities, the local economy, their education, to their health & safety - clean water improves it all. Everything is connected.
Here is more from my conversation with Julia.
Clove & Twine: When compared to water issues in the U.S., it can be difficult to understand the challenges that countries around the world face. Can you give some additional insight into what it means for people that lack access to basic services like water and sanitation?
Julia Correia, Water For People: An example that hits home for many folks is its impact on children, specifically girls. Women and young girls are often the ones who are tasked with getting water, and when there is no water readily available in or nearby their homes, that could mean a long, sometimes treacherous journey. For kids, this journey can happen early in the morning -
before sunrise. Can you imagine having to get up, walk multiple miles to get water, and then have enough energy to pay attention during a full day of school? Only to return from school and repeat the same walk when you get home? That’s the type of burden young children are facing. And that’s how you start seeing the ripple effects that are created when communities lack access to water. As you said, everything is connected!
Access to water means less time walking for water. More time to focus on school. More brain space and energy to pursue other studies or economic opportunities. More time for kids to have fun being kids!
On a global level, people without a toilet spend over 250 million hours EACH DAY finding a place to go to the bathroom. It’s hard to conceptualize that amount of consideration just to go to the bathroom, but it’s A LOT of time and mental energy wasted. People are putting their health, time, and economic development at risk when they don’t have access to water and sanitation. It’s an everyday burden.
C&T: We noticed “Everyone Forever” on your website & mission statement. What does that phrase mean?
WFP: Before 2010 we weren’t as focused on the long-term sustainability of the systems being built. You could go to a system created a few years ago that was often no longer in use. A minor issue could quickly render a system unusable, and local communities weren’t always trained to maintain water systems.
Everyone Forever evolved from a vision to an actionable, proven model where we’ve shown how we can focus on reaching everyone in an area with water and sanitation services AND focus on how those services are being sustained into the future - that’s the 'Forever' part.
Everyone Forever also represents our commitment to equity. Within districts where we work, there are often more remote, dispersed communities. When we commit to reaching everyone in a district, we also mean partnering with these rural communities. We want ‘Everyone’ to really mean everyone.
C&T: We know that Water For People works in nine countries, impacting millions of lives. Why did you choose these specific regions of the world?
WFP: When we implemented Everyone Forever as a model and not just a vision, this was also a time when we wanted to narrow the geographic focus of our work intentionally. We realized we couldn’t have the depth of impact we wanted if we were spread out over too many countries and cultural contexts.
We currently work in Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, Bolivia, Malawi, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, and India. Tanzania is the newest country program!
Each of these countries has large portions of the population who need reliable access to water and sanitation services. Simultaneously, there are opportunities within local, regional, and national governments to partner to maintain services for future generations. We want to support capacity exchanges and mutual learning so governments and local community groups can sustain these services long after Water For People stops working there.
C&T: You work specifically with water & sanitation, but other equally pressing issues exist in many of these countries. Why is water so vital?
WFP: Water is connected to so many other parts of life. When you talk about water, you have to talk about climate change. The countries where we work are among some of the lowest contributors to global emissions, yet they face the highest risk of increased weather events caused by climate change.
When you talk about water, you have to talk about women’s rights. Women and girls often carry the literal and figurative burden of getting
water, hindering their ability to pursue higher education and economic development opportunities. Women are most impacted by the problem, and they need to be central in the solution.
When you talk about water, you have to talk about economic development. Whether it’s the time to pursue economic opportunities or how water availability impacts the success of financial endeavors, water is part of the conversation.
C&T: Women comprise over 75% of Clove & Twine, and supporting women’s needs is very important to us. What does improved water resources & sanitation mean for women and girls specifically?
WFP: One aspect I haven’t mentioned about how water access disproportionately impacts women and girls is how we work in schools to promote better access to menstrual hygiene products and education. In many areas where we work, it is common for girls to stop going to school regularly or stop going altogether when they get their period. Schools often won’t have pads or tampons available, and the bathrooms can be shared between boys and girls without a dedicated, private space for girls on their period.
We want to ensure the physical infrastructure is there to help girls stay in school even when they have their periods, AND we want easy access to information. This means that all students, not just girls, learn about menstruation. It becomes a more approachable topic when students are equipped with the knowledge and tools to have the conversation.
WFP: A theme for all of my trips has been meeting with and learning from our country staff. Our teams in each country where we work are the reason I can discuss this impact with you. They build the relationships in their communities, influence national policies, and pave the way for a better future. When I’ve met with government officials and community members, they each emphasize how important their partnership is with Water For People. But they’re talking about the collaboration with our local country team, and that’s really special.
C&T: What keeps you personally excited about the work that you do?
WFP: I get excited by a big challenge, and we definitely have a huge one in front of us! It requires us to continually learn and innovate. That learning spirit is core to who Water For People is, and I think most of the problems our world faces need our collective creativity and bravery to think differently. We know more people need to be at the table. The voices of communities most affected by these problems need to lead the solutions, but historically, they’ve been left out. I can feel the conversation shifting in the sector, and that’s the only way we will solve these global challenges. Witnessing the transformation is exciting!

Reliable in its unpredictability, travel comes with a lot of unexpected baggage. Isn’t this part of the charm, though? You can’t guarantee that every aspect of your recipients’ trips will always go to plan, but you can certainly set them up with gifts that ensure a more comfortable, stress-free travel experience.

Welcome to a new era of headphones. Urbanista has developed the world’s first self-charging wireless headphones powered by Powerfoyle™ solar cell material. This gift never stops charging, so your recipients can keep on dancing. If you’re looking for a unique corporate gift that will genuinely wow your recipients, look no further. The future is bright, and we can use that light.
When we can escape the noise of the city and enter the quiet majesty of protected spaces, we have a great opportunity to experience the world without distractions. We can set aside any anxiety and fear of the future and simply be. Instead of taking a photo of a sunrise on our phones, we can exist within the present moment. We can feel the warmth, hope, joy, and gratitude. We can let everything else go and connect with where we are, and who we are with.
We chose to visit Joshua Tree, California, for this photoshoot not just because of its beauty, but because of its expanse. When we retreat to nature, we return rejuvenated. We escape a busy schedule by subtracting to feel more at peace. When we create space, we open the door to opportunity and growth. A pendulum can only swing forward by first being pulled backward.
There is something beautiful about a land that is seemingly harsh being a place where so many plants, animals, and cultures have thrived for thousands of years.
Average lifespan of a Joshua tree is around 150 years. 40
The tallest Joshua trees are 40+ feet high.
The first humans known to inhabit the Joshua Tree area were the Pinto, followed by the Serrano, the Chemehuevi, and the Cahuilla people.
The Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians is the current Native American tribe that resides in this area, and are descendants of the Chemehuevi. This tribe partners with others that promote land conservation and the protection of sacred lands, and also support descendants of the Chemehuevi, Desert Cahuilla, and Southern Paiute lineages in California and beyond.
Connecting with the land is meaningful and valuable. Just as relationships with people help us to learn and grow, our relationship with the land, plants, animals, and the world around us feeds and nurtures the soul.

Stretch it out and limber up for athleisure at its finest.
Exercise is like recess for adults. Whether their activity of choice is restorative and slow (yoga, walking), outdoors and social (golf, pickleball), or high-intensity and challenging (marathons, windsurfing), these gifts will support your recipients in enjoying their slightly-more-fun-than-work activities.
National parks are loved by millions but have been met with new challenges. With more visitors, less funding, and climate change, our wildlands desperately need help.
Parks Project aims to consistently educate people about the importance of protecting wild areas. More than just an apparel brand, they host regular volunteering events to restore trails and lands all across our country. They donate a third of their profits to national parks, so any gift you order helps fund a mission for a better future with protected spaces everyone can continue to enjoy.
Since the brand’s inception, Parks Project has strived to leave the world better than they found it. They meet the highest standards that apparel companies can reach, from becoming a Certified B Corp to continuously meeting the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and Global Recycled Standard (GRS).
Empowering the next generation to preserve the parks we love and leave them better than before.
More people are realizing the importance of supporting brands that make responsible, ethical, and sustainable choices. There is overwhelming evidence that the next generations are more likely to buy from and connect with responsible brands, even if the products cost more.
This is a significant shift from the recent past, and forward-thinking companies are taking note. We intentionally seek out innovative brands that people are genuinely excited about.
Company gifting isn’t just about giving gifts - it’s about building, nurturing, and maintaining relationships. We choose to work with product suppliers that are aligned with that mission.

Grace: Account Manager
Dog: Todd Dale Wiggles (aka Todd or Tiny). 4-year-old cattle dog/ chow chow/hound mix.
"Todd has so many quirks. He is missing some teeth on his left side, so his tongue often hangs out. He fears men he doesn't know, especially if they are wearing hats (no idea what happened there). Just knowing I have him to come home to is my favorite."
Mary: Senior Account Manager
Dog: Theodore Corndog Meatloaf Mincks (aka Theo, Theodore Roosevelt, Meatloaf, Loafy, Loafy Lou, Mr. Handsome, Mr. Floof Boy, Angel Boy). 2-year-old goldendoodle.
"Due to his love of swimming, if you are in the bathtub and do not lock the door, he will enter (on his own) and dive in. He will also drop his toy in the bath because who doesn’t want to play fetch while they are trying to bathe?"
Louisa: Design Director
Dog: Tatertot Pugsley Paul (aka Tater or Tots), 12.5-year-old pug.
"The weirdest thing Tater ate was an entire corn cob at a crawfish boil. It came out perfectly intact. She loves being a couch potato."
Alexa: Fulfillment Manager
Dog: Timber (aka Tim Tam), 11-year-old basenji mix.
"Timber was transferred into the shelter I was working at. I went to pick her up, and she would NOT get in the kennel in the back of the van. I had to return to work, so I let her sit up front with me. She ended up sitting in my lap for the entire drive. I found out later that she wasn't showing well with any potential adopters because whenever she was out of her kennel, she was looking for me. I adopted her a week later. I fell in love quickly, but she had already chosen me!"
