Last week there was a story on NPR about charity gift cards. Essentially, they allow you to buy a gift card as you normally would but then the recipient can go online and choose to which charity they would like to donate.
Charity Navigator, which is mentioned in the story, has a link to the Network for Good card. The other organization mentioned, ‘Tis Best, has their own card that they offer.
Of the two, Network for Good has the most arts and culture organizations, though they tend to be individual organizations while ‘Tis Best offers the opportunity to donate to larger service organizations like Artspace, Chamber Music America, Dance/USA, Mr. Holland’s Opus, and the Assoc. of Performing Arts Presenters.
It is too late to get involved for this holiday season, but is just the right time to explore how to do so for next year!
