Recently, President Obama made a
call to service and proclaimed January 19, 2009 to be a
day of renewal and reconciliation. If you just can't find the time to serve directly, one way to answer that call to action, is to show appreciation to those who toil each day in the trenches, helping their community organizations, with a well thought out gift.With
eDivvy.com, communities are able to come together and give a gift that can make a powerful impact. Community giving is also a sincere expression of shared love towards the recipient.
MacBook Air
Being connected while on the move has always been a great tool for those in service. Today, that means being not only connected on the phone, but online as well. Since the
MacBook Air is so light and small, it can be easily transported while your community hero is on the move. This computer runs about $3,000 retail, but comes out to around $150 each when bought through
eDivvy.com among 20 people.
iPhone
A community servant will no doubt spend a good amount of time coordinating via phone. Give them that tool, but in addition the power to organize themselves with a device that fits in their pocket. It will cost $50 individually when group gifted rather than around $500 when bought alone. The only downside with this gift is that it requires a monthly payment for the service.
Executive Chair
Paperwork is another "feature" that can be associated with community service. This gift allows for a more comfortable experience that would normally be out of budget. This chair costs almost $1,800 when bought alone, but with eDivvy.com, it's around $90 individually when split among 20.
Home Gym
Keeping in shape is a must for all of us, but many don't have the time to make it to a gym regularly; especially so, for those who volunteer their time serving their community. This $2,500 home gym set is about $200 from each person when split among 12. Just make sure you also send a few people over to help assemble it?
Pool Table
If you prefer to give the gift of leisure, this $2,500 Billiards table can be had for less than $120 each when split among 20 people. It might be a good idea to have a good old fashioned pool tournament with the community leaders if this gift if purchased. It can even be used as a fundraising tool where players can pool in money, with the winner getting to put the money towards an item beneficial towards the community.
Have you shown appreciation to the community servants in your neighborhood? We would love to hear your story.
