Did you know?
If every American family wrapped just 3 presents in reused materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.
Extra Lessons on Green Gift Giving:
1. Give in ways that also support your community: tickets to local theater performances, concerts, sporting events, or local attraction memberships; i.e. museums, local massage spas,
golf courses, shooting ranges,
Chamber of Commerce
, etc. ;)
2. Give your time and skill-coupons for household chores, meals, gardening, cleaning, window washing, car detailing, scheduled dog walks, or lessons in computer or smartphone use for
senior citizens.
3. Donate to a charity or service organization in the name of a friend or relative who supports that cause.
4. Support your local economy by buying from local merchants, craft shows, or antique shops.
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
