Better than a Box of Chocolates

Company Holiday Gift Ideas from the IRC

This holiday season, say thank you to your clients in a different, meaningful way. Send them a gift of hope, health, education, refuge, or rescue. It says more about your company than a box of chocolates.

How it Works

  1. Choose from the following options:
    1. IRC’s deluxe, customizable card with an image associated with the gift of your choice: health, education, rescue, refuge, home or hope
    2. a customizable insert to include in your company’s existing holiday card
    3. an electronic card
    4. a philanthropic company "gift card."
  2. The IRC will work with you to integrate your personalized holiday message and logo into the card, such as "In lieu of holiday gifts this year, [Your Company Name] has made a gift of hope on your behalf to the International Rescue Committee."
  3. Make a tax deductible, unrestricted gift to the IRC of $10,000 or above. Additional benefits are available at higher contribution levels.
  4. Print and send as many cards as you like. Please allow five business days for design and printing. (Print and mail costs to be assumed by your company.)

The Power of Your Gift

Your support can provide the gift of health by nourishing hungry children; it can provide a tent to shelter a family fleeing disaster; it can create a safe place for children to play and heal from the trauma of war; it can help a family rebuild their home; or it can extend the gift of education by providing a teacher with the tools to change futures.
