Resolve:this year, give something that gives back

Written by: Melinda Hine, Communications Intern

We all wonder what to buy that person on our list that has everything. Do they need a new book? What about a new toy or a new sweater? 

This year, give a gift that inspires hope and compassion. Give a gift they won’t need to return to the store after the holidays. This year, make a real difference in someone’s life and make a donation to the American Red Cross. 

This year, the American Red Cross has presented the 2011 Holiday Giving Catalog. With each donation made by you, gifts go directly to the people who benefit from them most; phone cards to the troops overseas, hot meals to families who just lost their home to a devastating fire or vaccinations to children who would otherwise go without. You determine where your gift goes and you know that your gift will help people when they need it most.  

This year, give something that can truly help someone in need and honor a loved one by giving a gift in their name. Visit www.redcross.org/gifts to do so today!
