UT student's philanthropic company helps you accessorize and give back | Culture Map AustinOne 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.
