We all have "those people" that we need to send a gift to, but they are hard to shop for because they already have everything, you don't them that well, etc. Rather than take a shot in the dark, I've started to send gifts that I know will make a difference. They will also make a difference for us when it's tax time as all of the gifts are tax deductible.
Last year I sent money in some one's "honor to purchase a pig, milk for a family, medicine for an African village, etc. For a few people that have children, I sent gift certificates so they could browse the catalog with their children, pick out gifts, and hopefully have a few minutes of bliss away from the Christmas consumer madness.
Are there any places similar to this where you like to shop for Christmas? I'd love to know!
