All of their goods are made by entrepreneurs in the developing world and majority of the proceeds go back to them. A good idea for those who are environmentally conscious, as well, since a lot of items are made from recycled and natural resources.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14945020183566762193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14145785.post-65775697178631292302008-12-09T19:58:00.000-08:002008-12-09T19:58:00.000-08:00The kids at our church enjoy making ziplock bags f...The kids at our church enjoy making ziplock bags full of nonperishable food items and water (and socks, which are usually the most appreciated!) to keep in the car. Then, when you pass someone on the side of the road, you have something to give them. When we put these together at church, we also include a laminated card with a list of social service agencies (with addresses and phone numbers) in our community.texasinafricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05098411373776559793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14145785.post-91918418484870030172008-12-09T19:44:00.000-08:002008-12-09T19:44:00.000-08:00Here's another good one: http://www.youtube.co...Here's another good one: <BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqrFG7xrE1I&eurl=http://www.catalystspace.com/catablog/full/toms_project_holiday/Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15163449866507673974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14145785.post-84707848750151640202008-12-06T22:57:00.000-08:002008-12-06T22:57:00.000-08:00My parents one time asked if we would be ok with g...My parents one time asked if we would be ok with giving gifts to kids whose parents were in prison instead of exchanging them as a family. We were kids so we threw a fit and didn't do it, but I never forgot it. My mother did take advantage of the Toy and Joy program when we were very little with no money.brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128687568558388843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14145785.post-91625028233817874702008-12-06T14:11:00.000-08:002008-12-06T14:11:00.000-08:00Very good ideas.Here is another one.

Usually homeless people get blankets, coats, etc. but do not get a chance to have a "wish list." One family can adopt one or two individuals and give a personal gift to them.KMiVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01836485376510663761noreply@blogger.com
