One entrepreneurial University of Texas student is feeding the need to accessorize, while giving shoppers an easy way to give back. Disco Daisies, founded by Nishiki Maredia in September, offers a collection of quirky, reasonably priced handbags whose proceeds benefit a rotating list of nonprofits. It’s the second endeavor for the 20-year-old, who co-founded 1950 Collective, a pop culture apparel brand, in 2015.
Bags range from crushed velvet purses to mini crossbodies and convenient wristlets in a plethora of bold colors, each emblazoned with a quirky design, from a slice of pizza to a skull. Priced at $27 each, there’s no need to pick just one; the more you buy, the more you give back.
Fifty percent of each sale is donated to a nonprofit selected by Maredia each quarter.
