GlobalGiving offers biodegradable gift cards and e-certificates.
GlobalGiving recently launched its new biodegradable gift cards so if you are looking for a sustainable gift, check these out - Made out of corn, they are 100% biodegradable – and work just like regular gift cards by letting the recipient donate to a GlobalGiving project of his or her choosing. They are fun and creative alternative gift ideas, not to mention environmentally friendly. All orders must be placed by December 21 to ensure expedited domestic shipping by Christmas.
And for those last minute or forgotten gifts, GlobalGiving offers e-gift certificates. Both can be purchased individually or in bulk.

Money-Back Guarantee
GlobalGiving, the online marketplace for philanthropy that connects donors to social-change projects in over 60 countries, just launched GlobalGiving Guaranteed, a groundbreaking program that offers donors complete satisfaction with their online giving experience. The guarantee is the first program of its kind in the US and covers contributions up to $10,000 on GlobalGiving.com, which since 2002 has directed more than $6 million from thousands of donors to over 900 projects – in areas from education and the environment to health
and economic development.
On GlobalGiving’s site, donors can track the progress of contributions through regular updates and photos, providing feedback directly to project leaders. This personal connection engages donors, encouraging them to stay connected to projects, and promote them to others.
GlobalGiving Guaranteed can be invoked on any online donation of up to $10,000. If a donor is not satisfied for any reason, GlobalGiving will issue a voucher in the amount of the donation to contribute towards another project.
All projects on GlobalGiving’s site go through a rigorous application process and adhere to high standards of accountability.

GlobalGiving Decision Markets
Do you have an opinion – on EVERYTHING? Do you think you make good decisions?
Well here’s a challenge for you – put those amazing decision making skills to the test and see if you've got what it takes to be a master speculator.
GlobalGiving has a unique opportunity for you – YOU trade “stock” in development here, and earn points by buying low and selling high. By earning the most points you can win prizes and recognition on GlobalGiving.
GlobalGiving and Pact’s Capacity Building Services Group are experimenting with the application of prediction (decision) markets for determining quality international development projects.
This innovative pilot is being run through August 31 at GlobalGiving Decision Markets.
A prediction market (decision market) is a speculative market designed to make predictions on the outcome of a particular event. It is like a stock market, where people buy and sell shares of ‘project stock’ instead of company stock.
When the market closes on August 31, projects will be added to the Global Giving website where they will be able to fundraise. We will track the success of the projects over the next few months and report back to the all the ‘traders’ in the market. Top traders get awards from GlobalGiving!!
Click here to check it out! We want to hear from you.
