What is a charity eCard?
A charity eCard is a heartfelt and socially responsible way for businesses to spread holiday cheer.
It’s a digital Christmas card that includes a message to promote a chosen charity that aligns with your values. In many cases, the company sending the Christmas charity eCard will have made a donation to the charity instead of buying a traditional card.
Unlike traditional paper cards, charity eCards offer a sustainable and eco-friendly way to celebrate the festive season. By opting for these meaningful eCards, you contribute to reducing paper waste and actively participate in creating a greener, more sustainable future.
Why send a charity eCard?
1. Make an impact
When you choose our charity eCards, you're not only sending warm holiday wishes but also actively contributing to positive change. Your donation may impact initiatives such as education for underprivileged children, healthcare for the vulnerable, environmental conservation and other worthy causes.
2. Reflect corporate social responsibility
In a world where conscious consumerism is on the rise, showcasing corporate social responsibility is vital for businesses. Our charity eCards serve as a powerful reflection of your company's values and commitment to giving back to society. By choosing eCards that support meaningful causes, you demonstrate to your clients, partners and employees that your business cares about making a positive impact beyond profit margins.
3. Personalised touch with meaning
While embracing the spirit of giving, our charity eCards allow you to maintain a personal touch. You can customise the eCards with heartfelt messages that convey your sincere Christmas wishes, adding a touch of warmth to your greetings. Incorporate your company's logo into the design to reinforce brand identity and show that your business takes pride in its philanthropic efforts.
