The Gift Of Giving
Most of us have much more than we need. A birthday gift is often just another gift that we do not need. If this sounds like you, here are some ideas for you to buy as gifts or ask for as your own gift.
1. Donate your gift funds to a charity. If you want to get value, do some research and find out how much of your donation goes on administration and how much goes to the actual charitable cause. Choose accordingly.
2. Buy some groceries and donate them to a food bank.
3. Buy some toys and donate them to your local children's hospital.
4. Buy some toiletries and donate them to your local hospital.
5. Donate blood.
6. Become a big brother or sister.
7. Sign up as an organ donor.
8. Volunteer
9. Sponsor the education of a child in a developing country.
10. Make an extra dinner, pack it up, give it to a homeless person. Do not forget the plastic cutlery.
Gifts do not always have to be received to get a thrill from them. Thrill yourself by giving to others on your next birthday.
