I know what the biggest problem is for Father’s Day: what to get the man who has everything. He doesn’t need any shirts and ties or he feels that’s all about work and he doesn’t want a holiday that focuses on what he gets paid to do. Your dad is the man who does lots of things; goes lots of places and has lots of interests. He has done a lot with his life so far and is enjoying ‘ the now’.. regardless of his age.
Maybe he has hobbies or maybe he has none- because his family is his hobby and focus. No matter what, your dad knows you love him. Now here’s your chance to show him just how much you love him — by helping others in return. Dads do that– help others. Show Dad that you got that message and donate to the International Rescue Committee by buying one of the “Rescue Gifts”.
What are ‘Rescue Gifts‘?
This Father’s Day, join the International Rescue Commmittee in celebrating courageous dads around the world by dedicating one of these meaningful gifts to the special dad in your life.
By honoring him with gifts from our Father’s Day Gift Collection, you can help brave and loving fathers accomplish a lot for their families.
• Tools for Disaster Recovery ($75) — Clearing the roads and rehabilitating towns after an earthquake, typhoon or other disaster goes faster with the right tools.
• A Year of School ($58) — Millions of children around the world are denied schooling. A year of education can give a child a chance at a better, brighter life.
• Emergency Care for a Child ($23) — Children suffer most in times of conflict. Critical medical care can restore them to health.
• Emergency Toilet ($45) — A safe and hygienic toilet stops the spread of disease and helps save lives.
• Emergency Cookstoves ($53) — A propane-powered cookstove can help uprooted families prepare their own warm meals—a comforting step on the road to recovery.
Honor the dad in your life—and courageous dads around the world— with your purchase of Rescue Gifts from this collection.
By purchasing the IRC’s symbolic “Rescue Gifts” you can show the fathers in your life just how much they mean to you by helping other families or people around the world that others do care about them and that you are doing it to honor those who are important in your life.
