Make It Special with a Card

You can send an eCard or print-at-home card if you’d like to tell the honoree about your generous gift in their honor. Personalize the card by choosing from nine different designs and writing a special message to the recipient.

Or Let Them Pick a Project

Not sure where to donate or want to leave it up to the gift recipient? GlobalGiving Gift Cards let you give the gift of giving - they choose the projects that they want to support and then see how their money has been put to work through regular updates from the field. You just pick out the gift card design, decide the dollar amount, and add a personal message and we’ll send it off to the recipient.
