Donate in Mom’s name

A gift to your mom could touch the lives of mothers in need around the world through the UNICEF Gifts of Magic program. Tribute gifts that address a specific need can be made in the name of your mom. Selections include the Gift of Art-in-a-Box, blankets for 11 babies, and HIV test kits for 25 Mothers-to-Be which are crucial for preventing the spread of HIV.
Also, check out the UNICEF web site for gift ideas including a black shimmer shawl, hand-woven in Thailand by a community that is part of a project designed to eradicate rural poverty and unemployment ($40). Another of the gift ideas is a handcrafted Journal ($22) created at a socially and environmentally conscious Indian NGO that employs families from disadvantaged communities to collect, sort, wash and press discarded plastic bags which are then stitched into journal covers.
