I posted details about Compassion Australia’s Gifts of Compassion back in September but I figure it’s time for a reminder. The gifts they’re selling help people who are battling desperate poverty.
You can buy everything from mosquito nets to a carpentry workshop with lots more in between including cows, sewing machines and a kit to help new mums.
Why not let your friends and family know that you’d like them to choose something from Gifts of Compassion for your Christmas gift this year? Go on … you’ve thought about it before but unless you let your loved ones know now it’ll never happen.
Maybe you’ve done most of your Christmas shopping already and you’re looking for stocking stuffers. What are stocking stuffers? They’re the small items that no one really needs yet we buy them anyway because all the Christmas advertising tells us we need to do so. How about stuffing some stockings with a card that tells a person you love that someone in a developing country will have a real chance at making a go of life in 2010 because you gave something in their honour to someone who has so very little?
