Giving the gift of charity as a present
Finding the perfect birthday present year after year is hard, especially for someone who seemingly has everything. Instead of another generic gift, stand out by donating to charity in their name. Charitable birthday gifts are a meaningful way to celebrate while helping those in need, here’s how you can get started with charitable donation gifts:
- Visit Save the Children's Gifts in Celebration page.
- Choose the amount you wish to donate.
- Complete the donation process.
- Download an eCard to print or email to the gift recipient. Alternatively, provide the recipient’s address, and Save the Children will send a card on your behalf.
Make your gift stand out
Our donation pages provide some worthwhile examples of how your donation will help but going the extra mile in personalising your charitable donation gifts will make the gift a lot more meaningful. If you know the gift recipient well, we encourage including information on a cause that resonates with their values or interests from our programs or poignant stories.
For example, you could share an empowering story of a trailblazing older sister as part of your gift to your sibling or find an international program that reminds a friend of their time volunteering while travelling. For younger recipients, involving them in the decision-making process and ways their gift can help other children can make the charitable gift a great bonding and educational opportunity.
Why choose charitable donation gifts?
Opting for charitable donation gifts brings both heartfelt satisfaction and practical advantages. Emotionally, these gifts allow you and the recipient to feel the joy of making a real difference, while potentially providing you with tax benefits and helping to curb unnecessary consumption.
Charity gifts make perfect presents for all kinds of celebrations, whether you’re asking for donations yourself or looking to do more good this year’s holiday season, here are some popular ideas to help charities through gift-giving:
Charity christmas gifts
Instead of traditional presents, consider charity Christmas gifts for your family or Kris Kringle this festive season. These thoughtful gifts bring joy and create a positive impact during what can otherwise be a busy and stressful time of year.
Charity wedding gifts
Charity wedding gifts beautifully symbolise shared values and create lasting impacts. Couples can include these gifts in their wedding registries or opt for donations in their guests' names over traditional wedding favours.
Other charitable gifts you can give
If you’re keen to support Save the Children but can’t donate money at the moment, giving your time or pre-loved goods to our op shops are other great ways to help. Items like clothing, books, and toys help fund our programs and promote sustainability by saving over 3.2 million items from landfill each year.
