Sometimes, the best presents aren't the ones that we're given, but the ones we give. Every year, it becomes harder to and harder to think of gifts we'd like to receive. Celebratory donations are a way to make your special occasion more meaningful.

KEY FACTS

£150 would cover the cost of labour to load one trailer for our Gifts in Kind programme

By asking your well-wishers to donate to World Jewish Relief (WJR), your generosity and that of your friends and family, will give communities around the world hope for a better future.

WJR helps people who, through no fault of their own, are trapped in a cycle of appalling poverty. Why not celebrate your special occasion with a gift of a better future?

Your celebration can help us fight severe poverty.

A celebratory donation is a generous way of sharing your special day with others who are far less fortunate. It's an easy way to donate and simple to do. We can help you to inform your friends and family about your celebratory donation by providing a leaflet that will contain information about WJR's work.

The leaflet has a reply slip which your friends and family can post directly back to WJR indicating their donation amount. Once we have received a donation we will send a thank you letter directly to them. After your celebration we will provide you with a list of everyone who donated to WJR at your request, giving you the total amount raised. You will also receive a special certificate from WJR with our sincerest thanks.

Your donation can reach around the world.

Your celebratory donation will help us to give our extended family hope for the future. You can be sure your suport will reach those most in need. We work with trusted partners on the ground, who have helped us to provide humanitarian aid and help maintain our long-term programmes worldwide.
