This Christmas, why not consider Alternative Gifts such as llamas and loos instead of the traditional socks and smellies, asks international relief and development agency, World Vision.
World Vision’s new Christmas range of Charity Gifts has 79 gifts to choose from, which will directly benefit 34 of World Vision’s community projects across 16 developing countries in Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa and South America. There are also a variety of gifts that will really save the day for use in major disaster and emergency aid situations and, with all gifts having been requested by the communities, you can be sure your gift really will make a real difference to the lives of others this Christmas time.
With gifts ranging from £5 to £5,000 and a large range of personalised gift cards, there’s something to suit and appeal to everyone.
Newly-wed Clare Oakley recently received £6,000 from her 200 wedding guests who all thought her wish to receive contributions towards Alternative Gifts, instead of wedding presents, was a fantastic idea. Clare commented, “I think it’s a wonderful idea and would encourage anyone wondering what to buy at Christmas to choose World Vision Alternative Gifts. What’s so special about World Vision Alternative Gifts is that they actually go to the communities and specific projects they say they are going to. There’s so much waste at Christmas with unwanted gifts and food but this is a brilliant and worthy idea because you’re helping others with real gifts that are wanted not wasted.”
