| Present Aid is an ethical gift shop with a difference. Our gifts are virtual. This means you can buy presents for a friend or relative, and the money you pay becomes a donation to Christian Aid. We send a fun card to the person who you’re buying the gift for, explaining how their gift is going towards changing people’s lives. The gift you choose – be it a basketball for a sports fan or a pair of reading glasses for a book lover – represents the kind of projects that benefit from your donation. |
