Another avenue of giving might be to find someone in your church or neighborhood who has lost their job or has a serious health issue and could use some financial support.

Our extended family has done this in the past several years, and it is a blessing to the person receiving the money and a blessing to us giving help to someone in need rather than spending it on token presents we don’t really need for ourselves.

check out modestneeds.org

Last year I filled a modest need as a gift in honor of each family member. Someone got their teeth fixed, someone got their rent paid.
