Last time you were here, you were looking to help vulnerable children and families. Your support can save and change lives.
When you purchase a Gift for Good, you are supporting ChildFund’s efforts around the globe to improve the wellbeing of children and give them a brighter future.
In Kenya, food packs typically contain 24kg of maize, which is a staple food used in many dishes. It also includes 10kg of nutritious beans, peas or lentils and 2L of oil for cooking. In addition to food, vulnerable families also receive clean water, soap and other basic necessities.
Goats are one of the very best ways to help children and families in need. Your gift could provide fresh milk, yoghurt and more for children. And parents can sell the surplus dairy products for much-needed income.
Handwashing can slow the spread of infectious diseases like COVID-19. But children in many communities lack access to clean water or soap for washing. Your gift of a handwashing station could help keep children safe and encourage lifelong, lifesaving habits.
Prevent suffering and save lives. Every two minutes somewhere in the world, a child dies from malaria. Countless more suffer needlessly from this devastating — and preventable — disease.
The gift of chickens could make a lasting impact for families and children. Raising their own chickens means that families have eggs for nutrition and extra income for other needs like their children’s education and health care. Even the chicken manure is valued as a terrific fertiliser for crops.
Sleep is essential for the mental and physical development of all young children. A simple gift of blankets and mosquito nets will keep them warm and safe from the threat of deadly malaria carrying mosquitoes.
Giving is how we improve the lives of others and bring meaning to our own.
When you donate Gifts for Good, you can help children and families in poverty access life-saving essentials, and regain a sense of purpose.
Our gifts respond to the needs of children in the countries where we work.
When you give the gift of animals, families get so much more!
You can select an e-cards, PDF card to print at home, or you can request physical cards which will be posted to your address. All of these options include a description of the item you have purchased, and how it helps children and families in vulnerable communities. All you need to do is write a personal message to your gift recipient.
Gifts for Good can be purchased at any time of the year, so you can also choose a card with a themed cover for birthdays, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and other important events.
All of our Gifts for Good form a part of ChildFund’s development programs, which are designed to help communities towards self-sufficiency. If you buy ten baby chickens, for example, then ChildFund will not only provide these chicks to the family, but also give them the opportunity to take part in training on animal-husbandry, and child nutrition. If you decide to buy a direct gift of baby chickens for your sponsored child, only the chickens are delivered. Please also note that prices and resources can range from country to country.
For gift cards, please allow 10 days for delivery via Australia Post. For any purchases made after 16th December, you can still share a personal message with your gift by selecting the eCard or printable PDF options on our website.
Yes, Gifts for Good are tax deductible. Keep your receipt and you can include your charity gifts as part of your tax return next year.
You can buy Gifts for Good for anyone. If someone you know cares about a particular cause, you can choose a gift that closely matches their interests. Our gifts have been given to colleagues, employers, family, friends, partners and more.
