This time of year it is easy to get swept up with the wish lists, the letters to Santa and the “I wants” We love Christmas in our home and opening presents are a big part of it. We also love to teach our children about giving back. Giving to those who have less. Giving to those who really could use a gift. A gift , many would not think of. A survival gift from UNICEF. Teachable moments like these come along less often than I would like. So we try to focus on them and share when we can.
If you are looking for meaningful holiday gifts for important people in your life(e.g., teacher, aunt/uncle, trainer, neighbor) this is a great option.
Example gift
Blankets for Babies
Keep babies snug and warm with a set of three blankets. This $18 gift will wrap babies in comfort and security, protecting them from cold and sickness. JoMedia will match* your gift, doubling its impact on child survival. (*to a maximum of $25,000).
There are lots of gift options from UNICEF that people would love to receive. I know many people on my list are so hard to buy for. They would really appreciate this thought. It is a great way to teach our children empathy and the love of giving to others as well. Gifts include; Bed nets, immunization, school supplies, water purification tablets and more.
