 🎀 Give back with Iconic Beauty’s 12 Days of Giving 🎀
The time is nigh, Beauty! Shout it from the rooftops like our Christmas queen Mariah herself—the holiday season has arrived! From spending time with loved ones to the sparkling lights on every corner to endless options of sweets and treats, it’s no wonder many of us consider this the most wonderful time of the year. However, beyond the myriad of sales and theme parties galore, one part of this magical season rises to the top every year: giving back. If you’re like us, gift-giving might be your love language, and with Iconic Beauty’s third annual 12 Days of Giving, giving will be easier than ever!
Iconic Beauty started the 12 Days of Giving in 2020 when our community felt further away and more important than ever. Every day, for 12 days, beauties far and wide spread kindness and holiday cheer by Doing Good and sharing it on social media. You have blown us away through your creativity and generosity and raised thousands of dollars for various causes and charities because of it. You’ve inspired us so much that this year, we’re changing things up a bit.Â
Thanks to our amazing community, we’ve witnessed firsthand that Doing Good means something different to everyone. In previous years, we’ve given daily tasks for giving—like donating old clothes or leaving a generous tip—for everyone to follow throughout the challenge, but this year, the world is your oyster! We want to follow your lead, to witness how you chose to give back and serve your community. And of course… there will be prizes!Â
Â
The 12 Days of Giving will begin on December 1st. To participate, you’ll download the 2022 Tracker to fill out over the twelve days. Then, each day you’ll share your Do Good activities to your Instagram stories, making sure to tag @iconicbeauty and #iconickindnesses. Every day, we will select one winner and donate $100 to the charity or platform of their choice. The next day, we’ll highlight the winner and their cause on Iconic Beauty’s Instagram stories. That’s 12 Days, 12 winners, with a total of $1,200 donated in the name of the winners!
Because we’re following your lead, this year’s schedule looks slightly different from previous years. Here’s what you can expect:
 Tell us about your favorite charity or cause and why you appreciate them. Be sure to share how you support them and all the ways others can champion them as well.Â
These days, you’ll choose what you do to bring good to those around you and beyond. Whether you decide to volunteer at a local food bank or donate to a GoFundMe that is called to you, you take the lead. Do what feels right and share it with others.Â
For the grand finale, share your tracker with us! Tell us what you learned over the course of the 12 Days of Giving. Do you have any key takeaways that you will carry with you into 2023?
The 12 Days of Giving is one of our favorite Do Good activities of the year, and we’re counting down the days until December 1st. We can’t wait to see all of the good you’re going to bring to your communities this holiday season. In the meantime, if you’re like us and can’t wait to get started, be sure to check out the recap of last year's 12 Days of Giving below or our Christmas in July blog for ideas to get started giving back right away! It’s never too early to Do Good!
