Charities
The greatest gift you can give me (other than beautiful memories) is one which enriches the lives of those less fortunate than you or I. In lieu of a gift for me, might I suggest a contribution to a worthy cause of your choice.
My personal favorites are:
- Local food banks
- Woman's shelters
- Children's Hospital
- SPCA or animal rescue shelters
- Amnesty International
- Sick Kids
- Kiva
- Goats for Kenya
- World Vision Gifts
- Humanity's Team A great worldwide organization successfully bringing about peace and respect by awakening the world to oneness.
I also have a charity of the month which I donate to, and if you would like to make a donation directly to that charity, it will be wonderfully received! I am more than happy to accept your donations in person or online and ensure you are provided with the tax deductible receipt if you so desire.
Should you wish to show your warm hearted philanthropic support via gift cards for major grocery stores (Safeway, Save on Foods, Urban Fare, IGA, PriceSmart, Costco etc.) or other discount stores (Walmart, Zellers, Home Depot etc) I would be happy to pass them along to the individuals or organizations which would benefit the most from your generosity.
Other terrific ideas are:
- Blood donation
- Signing an organ donor card
- Joining the registry for live bone marrow donors
