Father’s Day is this weekend on Sunday 16th June 2013, and we know it can be hard to find a gift that really shows you care. This year, why not give something a little bit different – like a fish pond or a cow?!
Concern Worldwide is an international charity that tackles hunger and poverty in the world’s poorest communities. By choosing your deserving dad a Concern gift, you can help another father and his family out of extreme poverty and transform their lives – what more special gift could there be?
Below are some ideas – or you can browse the range to make sure you find something perfectly suited for your dad!
- For the outdoors type… A Fish Pond £8
Dig and stock a fish pond to help benefit a community for the long term. Fish are easy to keep, a great source of protein and can be sold for extra income too.
- For the protective dad… Land rights £20
Land rights confirm a family legally own their land – vital in countries where people can be exploited and denied access to their own crops. The rights can be passed on to their children too.
- For the hard worker… A Cow £44
A hard working cow is a valuable asset. It also provides calcium-rich milk, manure for farming and hopefully a calf too. An udderly brilliant way to feed the family and earn a living.
These make the perfect last minute gifts too, as you can order an e-card right up until Father’s Day. You could even order it on the day, though I wouldn’t leave it THAT late!
