It’s reached that time of year, it’s Christmas time again! There are lots of gifts to buy, so we hope our quirky gift guide leading up to Christmas will give you some inspiration. And what if some of the money you spent went straight to charity…? Perhaps that’s enough justification to spend a little extra, or buy something for yourself and deck out your home with new décor.
We recently met the founder of Gifts4Good – an online shopping portal which brings hundreds of online shopfronts into one website. It makes it so easy to find Australian stores for you to browse in search of the perfect personal gift or homewares. PLUS, every purchase generates a donation which goes to a good cause of your choice.
Donating is such an amazing way to spend your money; it can seriously help those in need! Gifts4Good makes it possible to buy whatever you want AND give to a charity or community group at no extra cost!
Just visit the Gifts4Good website, pick a store and click through to the retailer’s website, choose your items and make a purchase as usual. A percentage of the sale goes automatically to our partner charity, GIVIT! To choose your own cause to benefit from your shopping instead, simply join Gifts4Good as a member and select your favourite charity. It’s completely free!
You can purchase your new rugs, towels, and side tables in your pyjamas, while being charitable and saving a bucketload. Talk about multi-tasking!
