Support the Causes you Care About this Festive Season

What can you give the person who has it all? Australians spend billions of dollars each year on buying Christmas presents for colleagues, friends and family. 

Handing a person a chance to tick something off their bucket list, attend an event or become a patron for a charity is better than gifting them yet another box of chocolates.

With many people now looking online when buying presents from their Christmas list, a new trend is emerging - festive giving. 

Socially conscious gift-givers are now looking to how they can offer meaningful presents to their loved ones and support ethical causes without breaking the bank.

Good Karma

Whenever you buy a Christmas gift card or donation gift vouchers, you aren’t just ticking an item off your to-do list. You’re going to help someone you care about make a lasting impact on a charity that strives to make the world a better place. It’s your good deed for the day, done in a few minutes. 

Go Unwrapped

If you purchase a mycause Christmas e-card or e-voucher, then you can print it out or just email it to the recipient. It is quick, easy and you won’t have to break the budget or try to wrap it up in fancy wrapping paper. You can also get creative with the Christmas donation gift cards and customise your card using your own images or designs, or can just select one of the fresh new mycause e-card designs. 

Show You Care By Fundraising this Christmas

Australians are now redefining the act of giving by creating, sharing or donations through online crowdfunding pages, with the rate of personal cause donations increasing each year. 

Tania Burstin, Managing Director of mycause.com.au said Australians are now considering how their money might be used to assist someone who is struggling over the Christmas break. 

“Crowdfunding is a great way to support causes or projects people deeply care about. It allows Australians to help people who need critical assistance this Christmas, says Tania.

“Sometimes donors can get a bit sceptical on where their money ends up. Crowdfunding sites cut out content clutter and directly link donors with personal causes.”

This festive season, take the time to really consider how your gifts represent the true meaning of Christmas for your loved ones. Make a difference by supporting a charity close to their heart or purchasing a Christmas gift card for their charity of choice.
