If your boyfriend, girlfriend, or spouse has ever considered keeping bees – or if they care about the environment – a honeybee gift donation ($30) makes a sweet gift. Or give a whole honeybee farm ($2,500) in honor of your honey.
Your mom is the woman who raised you; she deserves a thoughtful gift that makes a powerful difference in the world. Give Mom the gift of women’s empowerment with a food basket ($20) that alleviates hunger (includes produce, honey, coffee and dairy products to provide nutrition) or help a family like Maritus' send their daughter to school ($275).
Do you have friends who garden? Give them a gift that helps families start kitchen gardens and teaches farmers about sustainable agriculture with Garden Seeds ($60), an Earth Gift Basket ($60) or a Gardeners Gift Basket ($170). A sheep ($120) is the perfect gift for a friend who knits wool sweaters or mittens.
The greatest gift of all time? Donate a goat ($120) or a share of one ($10) in honor of your teen. Goats help families feed themselves. Along with training and education, each goat gift donation provides dairy for nourishment, income through the sale of extra milk and encourages better crop yields.
