Tribute Card Section is Up


We used to get a pecan pie every year as a business gift from someone my husband worked with. That was okay, but we'd eat it and then we'd feel bad about it. Our new Tribute Card section should have been around back then! A donation in our honor to send a child to school or fight cancer or plant some trees would have made us feel great.

This section is new, and we'll keep adding non-profits to it. But please scroll down the list and see if you can think of someone who might appreciate a donation instead of a fruitcake.

New Tribute Card Section


I'm excited about our upcoming Holiday Tribute Card section. Tribute cards represent a donation to a charity -- typically $5-$25 per card -- in the recipient's honor. They are generous and much-appreciated gestures that can provide remarkable benefits to non-profits.


I'm gathering information about a great selection of these cards, and hope to put them on the site within a day or two.


Some of the Tribute Cards will come from organizations already on the site; others will be from charities that are new to us.


If you know of a wonderful charity that offers a holiday tribute card, please let me know.

Central Park Conservancy


In August, a fierce storm devastated New York City's Central Park. Within minutes, 70-mile-an-hour winds destroyed more than 500 beautiful trees and damaged hundreds more. With cleanup and restoration costs estimated in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, it's a good time to support the Central Park Conservancy by sending their holiday cards.





The tranquil, snow-frosted scenes are lovely reminders of what a treasure Central Park is.
