Essential Gifts Make a Difference!

Welcome to our Essential Gifts range and thank you for taking a look! If you've been supporting us for a while, you'll know we issue our catalogue each year full of gifts that directly bless our partners and provide you with alternative ideas for Christmas presents.

Too Much Stuff

How many of us have had a good clear out, despaired that we have too much stuff or find it hard to think of something new and different to buy for Christmas?

Essential Gifts are different. For every gift purchased, you receive a gift card to pass on to your loved one, to let them know what has been purchased on their behalf. We send funds to our partners and they buy the gifts (or similar items) to bless needy people in their communities.

Built To Last

Essential Gifts are built to last - gifts of compassion, sustainability and education that our partners can provide to their communities, often pointing the way to Jesus, because the people our partners serve know that they are seen. You make a difference.

Essential Gifts cost as little as £10 and as much as £80, with a range of prices in between. Take a look and see if you can bless people near and far - or treat yourself!

For every Essential Gift purchased, you can receive a card (a physical copy or digital download) to pass on to your friend or family member for them to know what you have purchased on their behalf. Our partners can then purchase an Essential Gift to bless people they serve. Double-blessing!

Our Promise:
As good stewards of the funds we receive from the Essential Gifts catalogue, we are committed to sending as much as possible to the point of need. At least 85 pence in every pound will be used on this important initiative. The small amount used to cover support costs ensures this project is sustainable.
We are also committed to ensuring every Essential Gift is wanted and the local need is met with the most appropriate gift. So, we require flexibility for our partners to be able to meet the most urgent need. Allowing this flexibility means we cannot guarantee the partner will provide the actual gift you purchase, but it will be an item within the same category.

Great news! Essential Gifts are also available throughout the year - so they are a great choice for birthdays, special occasions and if you just want to purchase a gift to provide specific blessings.
