the-giving-treeWe all know that this is the season of giving. And most importantly, it’s about giving to those in need. A Seattle-based philanthropic organization called TisBest is offering an exciting new option for a holiday gift — charity gift cards, described on their website as follows:

“TisBest Charity Gift Carts give others the opportunity to give — and that, we believe, “TisBest” of all! That’s how we got our name.”

Cards are available in any denomination. All the recipient has to do is to go onto the website and select from a list of charities, all of which have gone through a careful screening process before being selected for the site. TisBest Philanthropy was founded in 2007 and today has over 20,000 satisfied Charity Gift Card donors and recipents and have collected hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities. For more information, visit www.tisbest.org.

    Hi Sarah, Megan and Laura,

    Thank you so much for mentioning TisBest on your blog. We appreciate all of our supporters like you who are helping get out the word about this great gift alternative in a world filled to the rim with “stuff”. More for charity, less for the landfill.

    Sincerely,
    Erik Marks
