I love how World Vision has put together their Holiday Gift Catalog this year. They've given us opportunities to give in ways that are simple and tangible and make such a difference in the everyday lives of people around the world. Here's just a few examples.
For only $30 you can help a child succed in school by providing backpacks and school supplies.
For just $25, you can give 2 chickens to a family and help them with their nutrition and income through the raising and selling eggs.
For $69, you can provide farming tools and seeds. What a great way to help people, help themselves!
Your donations can towards towards all sorts of things including clean water, animals, soccer balls, even art supplies. I can't wait to sit down with our boys, go through the catalog and let them pick out ways that they can help. Often it's hard for kids to understand how giving a monetary donation can really make a difference. They can't see it. Through the pictures and descriptions, I'm excited for our kids to learn how giving can have such a real effect on others who live with much less than we do.
