Now there is a reason to feel good about your drinking. Here are three companies that are committed to supporting charities and causes.
Snow Leopard Vodka
Snow Leopard Vodka is produced in Poland. Snow Leopard Vodka donates 15 percent of its profits to the Snow Leopard Trust, which was created in 1981. This nonprofit works hard to protect the snow leopard in its natural habitats throughout Central Asia and works with locals to develop conservation programs. To date, it has donated over $250,000 to the trust.
Tito’s Handmade Vodka
Tito’s is a top-selling vodka in the Lowcountry, and it might be, in part, due to its commitment to helping dogs. Tito’s is so committed to dogs that it is considered the “vodka for dog people.” Proceeds from their online store go to Emancipet, which is an organization that helps make veterinary care affordable and accessible. Not only does the brand support animals, it also has an open, pet-friendly work environment where employees can bring dogs to work and are encouraged to rescue local strays.
Elephant Gin
Elephant Gin is handmade in Germany. The founders were inspired by their visits to Africa, so they created a company that helps conservation trusts in Africa. It donates 15 percent of its profits, adding up to over $1 million to elephant conservation.

Lighten up
According to medical experts, when you get stressed, your body tenses up and can cause you to feel stuck. A good laugh can relieve physical tension in the body and relax the muscles for up to 45 minutes.
