With non profits and people struggling to make ends meet, prominent public figures have called on us to support charities instead of giving gifts this holiday season. The problem as a gift giver is knowing whether the recipient would prefer a gift or a charitable donation. Makes it easier if the recipient declares that they would prefer to forgo gifts and donate to a cause.
This is the gap Skip the Gifts tries to fill. You can register to receive cash instead of gifts and donate the cash to any cause. The person donating still declares what they would have given you, so the thought behind the gift is preserved.
