The new Alternative Gift Catalogue for Spring/Summer 2007 from World Vision is bursting with inspirational ideas that can’t fail to make an impression on birthdays, weddings and any other special occasions. You’ll be spoilt for choice with over 70 inspiring and original gifts. What better way to celebrate a new baby than with a birth certificate (£6), offering a Bolivian child a brighter future. Or give your angling mate fish for his 40th birthday (£17). You could also add an extra kick to a couple’s wedding day with a donkey (£51).

World Vision gifts connect people fighting poverty and our work in a community depends on their priorities. People may need your help to grow enough food to eat, improve access to education, healthcare and clean water. Or improve incomes so they can send their children to school. Your gifts will help connect with people who’ll appreciate your help and World Vision work is long term and rooted in the communities and we’ll stay working within a community for up to 15 years working with local staff who know the area.

Once you’ve decided on your gift, you can personalise it even more by creating your own fantastic greetings card online. There’s a choice of 3,000 card designs – something for every kind of celebration. You can even upload your own photos and add new captions to the card.

So take the “donkey work” out of shopping by ordering online at www.greatgifts.org . If you order online before 2pm, your gift will be dispatched within 24 hours (weekend orders sent following Monday). Your life-changing gifts will be well received by friends and family on those special occasions and will improve the lives of people living in poverty around the world. The communities with which we work have requested all the gifts, so you can rest assured they will be well received and make a real difference. So I hope you’ll be inspired to make more than one person’s day with our outstanding range of gifts.

World Vision is one of the world’s leading relief and development agencies, helping over 100 million people in nearly 100 countries in their struggle against poverty, hunger and injustice, irrespective of their religious beliefs.
