Surprising a loved one this Christmas is just the beginning. Create goodwill that lives on well beyond the holidays when you shop at www.charityfolks.com and give a gift that “give backs.” With dozens of unique ideas, ranging from one-of-a-kind experiences to fun and unique stocking stuffers, even the most discerning of shoppers can find something this holiday season.
Need that perfect gift for the sports fan in your life? How about the chance to be on the field for the Red Sox batting practice; to catch a Yankees game from amazing seats right behind home plate; to watch Sunday football with Michael Strahan or have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to caddy for golf great Justin Rose at the Arnold Palmer Invitational? Perhaps someone on your list is looking for their big break? You can help them and others too by shopping for “foot in the door” opportunities like an internship at MTV, a mentor meeting with #1 New York Times Bestselling author Brad Meltzer or meetings with some of the most successful directors, producers, agents & writers in Hollywood. Or maybe you need an unforgettable gift for the hobnobber in your life? Surely lunch with soap legend, Susan Lucci, set visits to “Mad Men,” “How I Met Your Mother” and “NCIS,” VIP tickets to Saturday Night Live or the chance to attend Elton John's 84th Academy Awards viewing party will do the trick!
If not, you can customize gifts for your loved ones. Maybe it’s lunch with their favorite actor, visiting a movie set, walking the red carpet or having VIP access at their next concert. No matter what it is that you’re day dreaming of, chances are that Charity Folks can make it happen – and all while making the world a better place!
