If you need meaningful gift ideas for your friends or family…hey, even if you need some ideas for yourself when people ask what you’d like for the holidays, this list is going to help you think outside the box!

Brought to you with the help of Friendly Like Me, the first-of-its-kind app and web platform helping users “Go in Confidence” with accessible travel, dining out, sightseeing, shopping, and even accessible entertainment venues. The platform also recommends products and services people with access needs really want. 

The Co-Founder and CEO of Friendly Like Me, Elysia Everett, is a woman of size and says, “People are more than just one thing, and accessibility and comfort mean something different for everyone. With nearly one-third of the US population having access needs or needing plus size friendly accommodations, businesses that prioritize the plus size community and people with access needs will thrive this Holiday season and throughout the year.”
