Philanthropy Friday

Gift - Giving Edition!

Are you looking for a unique gift idea that really expresses the reason for the season?

Maybe you have that special someone on your Christmas shopping list that is, let’s just say, impossible to shop for. If so, you should consider making a CareLink (or our water- sanitation non-profit, ThirstyChild) donation in their name. It’s simple! Just two easy steps:

1. Send me an email at jeff@jeffreyhartman.org . Tell me your friends name, the

amount of your gift, and their email address (or physical address, if you prefer

that we send their holiday gift acknowledgement with a fancy greeting card

instead of email). Include any special instructions, like whether or not you want

us to mention the amount of your gift, otherwise we will just indicate “ in

celebration of Christmas, a generous donation has been made in your name.”

2. Visit CareLinkFoundation.org or ThirstyChild.org and make your donation.

We will email your friend, (or mail them that pretty card I mentioned above), wish them a Merry Christmas, and let them know we have received a donation on your behalf. We will also provide them with some information about our work, and a link to our website, so they can experience a personal sense of joy knowing the world is a better place because of a special gift made in your honor.

See, I told you it was easy! And no extra cardboard boxes on your front porch.

So, take that loved one off your shopping list today and show them the real reason for the season! (BTW, who really needs another sweater?!)
