The best Christmas gifts don’t always come in shiny packages. The best gift you can give this holiday season might actually sound like a “moo” or an “oink.” Or it might smell like the first decent meal a refugee family has had in weeks or look like a night in a safe house for a victim of human trafficking. You can find the best Christmas gifts of all—gifts that will meet needs and change lives—in the Send Relief Gift Catalog.
Here are some meaningful gifts.

For Kids
Clothes for a Child
Children being placed in the foster care system are often only given secondhand clothing that is ill-fitting or uncomfortable. Your gift provides clothing, comfort items, and other necessities for a child in need.

For Moms
Infant Formula
Droughts and mass food insecurity plague underserved communities all around the world. This especially impacts nursing mothers because they need extra nutrition for themselves and their newborns. Your gift provides for the nutritional needs of up to 25 babies and includes formula, baby food, fruits and vegetables, nutritional supplements, and vitamins.

For Dads
Job Skills Training
Families experiencing poverty often just need someone to help them take the first step toward independence. Your gift will provide a hard worker with the vocational training they need to develop marketable skills and support their family.

For Teenagers
Safe House
For children and adults who have survived sexual exploitation, finding a secure place to recover is often the first step toward healing. Your gift will provide survivors with a free night in a safe shelter where they can find protection, safety, and a community that can help them escape exploitation.

For Teachers
After School Tutoring
For children living in underserved or impoverished neighborhoods, access to high-quality education can be difficult to obtain. Your gift provides a child in need with resources to attend after-school tutoring and the opportunity to be mentored by a loving, encouraging adult.
If you have a slightly larger budget, check out how a gift like a pig or a cow can bring desperately needed help to a family living in an impoverished community. You can even help resettle a refugee family or help communities recover from natural disasters.
You can find these gifts and many, many more in the Send Relief Gift Catalog—meaningful, eternally impactful gifts that will meet needs and change lives all over the world.
