GiftsToGive
Melissa Hoefel's Company Details
GiftsToGive is building a community to tackle child poverty – and a new currency for philanthropy. We call it "Tangible Philanthropy and Big Citizenship."At first glance, GiftsToGive is a former textile mill turned warehouse where surplus children's gear is recycled, re-purposed and gifted to children in-need.But wait – there's more! Our primary mission is to give all SouthCoast young people – the privileged and those in-need – an opportunity to practice Big Citizenship and Tangible Philanthropy through their gifts of time and treasure. Children come to understand, through their "doing" the power of giving and service and that we all have gifts to give.
