Gifts for the Generations: Gen Yers
Finally, we arrive at Generation Y – my generation. We were born between the years of 1978 and 1991 and are now aged 18 to 31. Some of us are just on the cusp of the X and Y generations and might be more likely to relate as an Xer. But for me, I am Y all the way.
Black Mac ColcaSac (Cost: $33): Got mac? Then your Gen Yer might be interested in protecting this significant tech investment. The ColcaSac is a protective sleeve made of fleece and hemp from the Colca Canyon in Peru.
Glee Vol 1 & 2 (Cost: $12.99 each on iTunes): Who doesn’t love this season’s break out hit GLEE? The show has a great message and the music is phenomenal. Those beautiful voices belong to a seriously talented group of Gen Yers.
Taking IT Global Bamboo Tee (Cost: $35): Taking IT Global is an international youth empowerment organization that uses technology to mobilize young people in building a better world. This inspiring t-shirt is an ideal gift for any socially conscious Gen Yer.
(RED) Converse Chucks (Cost: $50): If you can’t walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, buy your own and make a contribution to many through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
