Looking for a Meaningful Gift? Why a Charity Gift is the Perfect Christmas Present.

I’m sure many of us feel like we're drowning in ‘stuff’? This Christmas, if you’re looking for ethical presents that don't add to clutter, you’ve come to the right place.

Children on the Edge’s 'Gifts of Hope' are the perfect solution. Instead of giving a physical item, you can give a charity Christmas gift in a loved one's name that helps create a brighter future for a child who needs it most.

Buy an ethical Christmas gift that directly supports our work with children in some of the world's most difficult places. When you choose one of our Gifts of Hope, you're giving a gift on behalf of a loved one that has a lasting impact.

Give a Gift That Changes Lives

Every gift, big or small, has a real impact. Here are a few examples:

• £4 provides seeds for a family in Uganda to grow their own food.

• £17 gives a child in Bangladesh essential school supplies for a year.

• £40 pays a teacher's salary for one month, helping a whole class in India learn and grow.

This Christmas, you can give a gift that truly lasts.

Take a look at all our Gifts of Hope and choose your perfect gift.
