Give a child a chance this Christmas

Looking for an unusual gift this Christmas? How about a gift that will give a poor child in Nepal the chance to have an education.

One of the gifts available from INF's new online catalogue is school books and equipment for a child.

Thousands of children in Nepal don't get the opportunity to have even a basic education. INF works with rural communities and families affected by poverty and disability to ensure children hungry to learn get a chance. INF assesses the need for educational support, helps choose appropriate schools for children and gives ongoing support and encouragement to families.

For just US$55 / €39 / £33 / Aus$66 / NZ$82, the gift enables a poor or disabled child to go to school with all the books and equipment needed. Taxpayers in the USA / Australia can buy the gift tax-deductibly, taxpayers in the UK can buy the gift tax-efficiently.

Q: What do you buy for the person who has everything?
A: Something for someone who has next to nothing

Whether for Christmas, a birthday, wedding, anniversary or other occasion, the INF gift catalogue enables you to buy presents for friends and family which will also provide vital help for poor people in Nepal.

Each time you buy something from the INF gift catalogue you can choose either a printed card or e-card showing and describing the gift. You can then send the card to the 'recipient' of your gift. INF will allocate the money given to the type of work indicated by the gift.

The gifts in the catalogue come in a wide variety of prices and categories:

Food & accommodation
