philanthropic

  • Give a Fair Trade Gift and support the business of someone who is working to escape poverty.

  • Make a financial donation to your favorite charity in honor of your friend or family member, and a card will be sent to him or her.
    • The Make a Wish Foundation makes wishes come true for children with life threatening illnesses. Make a donation through their website, and they will send a personalized card to the person you want to honor. Be sure to request a card by December 13 to have it there by December 25. www.wish.org
    • If you don’t have a favorite charity yet, check out Charity Navigator which rates charities’ success in making a difference and their ability to use funds appropriately. www.charitynavigator.org
  • Purchase items for families or communities in need, and have a card sent to your family or friend telling them who was helped in their honor.
    • Through the Samaritan’s Purse online catalog you can reach worldwide to provide milk for a hungry child, help support a classroom, provide a family with baby chicks, or helping a village have clean water, just to name a few. Purchase an online gift in the name of someone you love, and they’ll receive a card telling them that someone has been helped in their honor. www.samaritanspurse.org
    • Through the Heifer online catalog you can purchase livestock for a family in need as a sustainable gift that will provide long-term benefits. Request a card to be sent to the person in whose honor you send this gift. www.heifer.org
  • Purchase a gift that gives back!
    • When you purchase the Lunette Scarf from your CAbi Consultant, a portion of the proceeds will go to support the Heart of CAbi Foundation, which works in partnership with organizations around the world to bring support to those in need. Check out the CAbi website to read more about the CAbi Foundation. www.cabionline.com
    • When you buy Red Products, a portion of the sales go to the Red Foundation, which is working to alleviate AIDS in Africa. Check out this website for a list of products that are “RED.” www.joinred.com
  • Buy a membership to a local organization as a gift and you will be supporting the cause of the organization. Usually memberships come in pairs so it is a great gift for a couple or a family.
    • An annual pass to a local zoo not only provides a year’s worth of fun, but supports wildlife preservation.
    • A membership to an art museum or symphony often provides opportunities to be the first to see a new exhibit or the chance to get hard- to- find tickets, and also support their local art community.
