Have you heard of charity gift cards? The gift-giver makes a charitable donation but the recipient chooses which charity receives it.

Erik Marks, TisBest’s founder, remarks that once people get material wealth, giving each other more stuff just doesn’t make sense. Recipients can “spend” a TisBest card at 250 national non-profit organizations.

Sounds like a beneficial and attractive way to get your gift shopping done. What could be better? They accept credit cards and choose a charity to donate the $!
