Ten Factors That Make the Global Giving Gift Card the Greatest Present Ever

 Ten Factors That Make the Global giving Gift Card the Greatest Present Ever

Giving gifts for the holidays can be challenging. The Global Giving Gift Card is the ideal way to make the Christmas season less stressful and more meaningful. Here are ten reasons why.

We are once again in this time of year. We spend hours worrying about the "ideal present" and how we're affecting a society that is growing increasingly consumerist during this time of year. We promise that things can be different this year. We asked our staff members what they believed made the Global giving gift card the perfect gift.

They said the following:

1. "Because this year, my dad's drawers are unable to accommodate another pair of socks or underwear." -Andrea Osorio, Fellow of the Disaster Recovery Team 

2. "Because you have the option to help charitable organizations in over 170 nations worldwide! That is not possible with a new scarf! -Megan DeSisti, New Partner Support + Program Associate 

3. "Because charitable contributions are unassailable." Senior Disbursement Associate Rishabh Bajekal

4. "Because they have no idea what to get their third cousin!" Katherine Heidecke, a Fellow in Programs 

5. Because of its excellent bridge-building capabilities. It will enable your family members to support issues that are very important to them! Lizette Hechavarria, a UX designer and creative 

6. "Because a Global giving gift card is preferable to something else from QVC." Grandma, I love you. -Holly Belkot, Strategic Initiatives Manager

7. "Because there's always that one person who surprises you with a gift." You can avoid feeling like a bad person and have a meaningful gift ready if you carry a few GlobalGiving Gift Cards in your back pocket. -Data Scientist Nick Hamlin

 8. "Because there are over 3,000 nonprofits to pick from! I think that's far more awesome than receiving another chain restaurant gift card. -Junior Developer Barrett Cope 

9. "Because my kids would love it as a stocking stuffer." It has become a Christmas custom for us to review all of the projects together, and kids get to select which one they wish to fund. My daughter consistently makes the same decision.

10. "Because everybody wants to feel good during the holidays." I've discovered that there's no better way to do it than to help causes like climate conservation in Costa Rica and education for females in Afghanistan. -Senior Business Partnerships Manager Nicole Morrissey Do we need to elaborate? Today, give the gift of giving.

It’s that time of year again. The time of year where we spend hours stressing over the “perfect gift” and fretting over how we’re contributing to an increasingly consumerist culture. This year can be different—we promise. We asked our staff why they think the Global Giving gift card is the perfect gift.
