PHILANTHROPIC TRENDS: GIFTING GIVING PEPPER RUTLAND
NEW TRENDS A new trend that has swept the millennial generation is to gift philanthropy. While volunteering and traditional donations are still very important, offering unique alternatives to the traditional practices of giving can provide new life for tired tactics and ignite a new passion in different audiences.
WEDDING FAVORS Instead of favors at your wedding, make a small donation in the name of your guest instead. You can even order custom place cards to have at each table setting with personalized messages showing the donation. 
CHRISTMAS CARDS Companies such as the Charity Gift Catalog through World Vision, Kiva, Read Between the Lines, and The Gift of Giving, have dozens of card options that not only offer a hopeful message but donates portions of their profit to larger organizations giving to those in need.
GIFT CARDS Thoughtful companies like CharityChoice offer a gift card that allows the gift receiver to choose up to 3 charities to donate the money on their gift card to. Partnering with over 1000 charities, there is a cause for anyone to connect to.
