The Gift That Keeps On Giving

This year for the holidays, I am working with my family to figure out a way to make gift giving more rewarding, less excessive and more environmental. For gifts this year, we are instituting a recycled, handmade or “experience” type of gift policy. You can find your gifts from used stores, make your gifts, or give the gift of experience (hopefully the outdoor variety). Or you can go for the gift that keeps on giving – one that helps create important and lasting change in our society – the gift of membership. Giving the gift of membership in a cause that’s important to you, wherever your passion lies, is a win-win for both the giver and receiver. More than ever, non-profits need support and buying memberships is a way to demonstrate that you care about a cause enough to pass your passion along to another. So, if Leave No Trace is on your list, and you wouldn’t be reading this blog is it weren’t, get your individual memberships now before they sell out (just kidding). Visit us at https://store.lnt.org/support to learn more and make a difference this season. Happy Holidays!
