Meaningful gifts
For the festive season, NGOs offer a range of gifting ideas that will make a difference to the lives of the underprivileged.

When you light them, they brighten up your room. But when you buy them, they brighten up the lives of those students — in every group, three are visually impaired and one partially sighted.

He wore glasses from the age of 2, which gave him vision well into adulthood. Although he hated wearing them as a kid and found plenty of innovative ways to ditch his glasses including burying them in his sandbox, they did what they were supposed to.
