Buying a Concern Gift this Valentine’s Day means you can be part of the solution – you’ll know you are making a difference long after the chocolates are eaten and the flowers have withered!

With so many gifts to choose from, you are sure to find something unique for that special someone. Here are some suggestions:
What a great catch…
Admittedly, a gift of fish is not your first go-to Valentine’s gift; but what better way to prove to someone what a great catch you are! For £8 you can help dig and stock a simple fish pond so that a community can reap the rewards for years to come. Check out the video below to see how this gift works, what a bargain!
Keep the fire burning…
For £22 you could train a woman to make an eco-stove by hand from locally sourced materials, who can then pass on her know-how to others in her community. These stoves are sustainable, easily built and can last for years – keeping the fire burning all year round.
For a reliable partner…
The dependable donkey helps lighten the load for families by carrying water, fuel and crops for miles. With the help of a donkey, farmers can cultivate a bigger area of land and produce more much needed food for their families – a relationship sure to go the distance!
