Christmas can be hard when you are trying to find a gift for someone and you can't think of ANYTHING they need. This year instead of a candle or a scarf help the girl/guy who had everything give to the girl/guy who doesn't. Below is a list of perfect much needed gifts you can help them give. Click the pictures for the link to buy!
A Water Buffalo
With the Heifer Foundation and a donation in your loved one’s name you can quite literally give a water buffalo to a starving family abroad. Or a flock of geese, or a llama.
A Loan
This one is my favorite because it keeps on giving. With Kiva.org, you can give a loan to someone in a developing country to start their business. Maybe someone starting a restaurant or a business to bring education to their village. The best part of this is when they can, they can pay back the loan and it can go to another start-up!
A Sea Turtle
Give them a literal endangered sea turtle. They don't need to raise it in their home but they do sponsor it. The best part is they can go online a track it to see where it is in the world.

Vaccinations
And a plethora of other much needed medical services. Haiti is a hugely impoverished country but you can do something about it. Donate to The Lamp For Haiti who has already provided countless medical services to those who need it most. Help the girl/guy who has everything provide for the girls and guys with nothing.
Lunch
Let the guy/girl who has everything but lunch. Buy lunch for a starving child, that is. Mary’s Meals provides food at school who can't afford it. Check out Mary's Meals Famine Relief and Education.
An Education
Education is hugely valuable but it's not always available. The girl/guy in your life with everything may take it for granted but i'm sure they see the value of providing it for someone else! With The Malala Fund you can send a girl to school and pretty much guarantee a better life for her.
Puppies
This helps prisoners, puppies and people who need service dogs. It's a win, win, win, win. This organization (puppies behind bars), you can donate to in the name of your guy/girl, arranges pairings between prisoners and puppies. They raise them and train them to be service dogs. It gives both the prisoner and the dog a sense of purpose. And it involves puppies, so yeah.
