Church World Service - Best Gift Catalog
Your gift helps bring genuine and lasting change to those who need it most.
All these gifts are examples of how Church World Service works in partnership to assist people in the world’s poorest countries to find effective ways of tackling poverty and injustice. Whatever gift you buy, your money will fund the program areas related to your gift: animals and food security, children, women, emergencies or water. For example, if you buy a pig or a beehive, your money will go to animals and food security programs that can boost people's nutrition and income.
CWS offers free cards to tell your gift recipients about the special gift you’ve given in their honor – and how it’s helping struggling families build a brighter future.
Order a gift from the CWS Best Gift catalog – online, by phone or by mail – and get a traditional printed card or an eCard for each gift of $10 or more.
