Instead of spending a set amount on each person on your gift list, why not make a charitable donation in their name instead? How about giving the gift of your time? Your neighbor may appreciate a day to herself. Offer to spend one afternoon babysitting. Prepare a meal for a shut-in. Decorate a picture frame and enclose a photograph that means something to you. Give it to your family members and friends. A gift from the heart is truly worth its weight in gold. There are a number of ways to show a person that you care that don’t cost a lot of money.

Many non-profits have ways of doing this. One in particular that I have done before is through Heifer Project. You can buy livestock and other useful things for people in developing countries. Check out this link to see some of the things you can buy. You can spend as little as $10 and as much as $10,000. http://www.heifer.org/site/c.edJRKQNiFiG/b.204586/ Instead of doing Secret Santa, some families might want to forgo getting gifts for each other and pool money together to help out a good cause.
