In 2015, Americans gave over $373 billion to charitable organizations, a 4.1 percent increase from 2014 (National Philanthropic Trust). As charitable giving continues to grow, I want to encourage you to place your trust in the World Vision Gift Catalog this holiday season.
The 2016 World Vision Gift Catalog contains more than 250 poverty-fighting gifts, ranging in price from $16 to $39,000, that improve the quality of life for struggling children and families in the U.S. and around the world. You’ll find beautiful handcrafted items made by artisans around the world in the Gift Catalog. These gift include gift for the home and for the closet.
