Best Gift Cards to Stock Up on for the Holidays
The holiday season is a time of celebration, togetherness, and generosity. It is also the busiest time of year, as people purchase gifts, travel, and prepare festive meals.
The holiday season includes extra spending on food, travel, and dining out. Every one of these purchases can generate contributions when made with FundScrip gift cards. That's why December is the peak fundraising season, and why planning ahead ensures even more benefits.
Why Stocking Up Matters
Gift cards are versatile tools for both giving and everyday spending. By stocking up before the season begins, FundScrip supporters can reduce stress, ensure thoughtful gifts are always on hand, and maximize the positive impact on their cause.
With a variety of cards ready, supporters always have a thoughtful option at hand, whether for a family member, teacher, or party host. Stocking up also helps with essentials. Groceries, fuel, and even restaurant meals become fundraising opportunities when purchased through FundScrip. Planning not only saves time but also ensures holiday spending supports the cause.
Best Gift Cards for the Holidays
Some gift cards are particularly useful during the holidays. Here are some top choices for supporters to consider:
- Merry Meals: Holiday entertaining means full carts of tasty ingredients, festive treats, and extra snacks. Grocery gift cards are among the most practical purchases and a must-have for supporters. FundScrip’s holiday meal guide makes it easy to enjoy a festive feast.
- Holiday Travel: Whether driving across town or taking longer trips to visit loved ones, travel costs can add up. Fuel discount cards can turn holiday journeys into generous contributions.
- Stocking Stuffers: Small denomination gift cards are great for stocking stuffers, thank-you tokens and holiday gift exchanges. They're versatile, personal, and always appreciated.
How Planning Ahead Helps the Cause
The more supporters plan, the greater the campaign’s success. Stocking up early means every purchase, whether for gifts or everyday essentials, contributes to fundraising goals. It also prevents last-minute shortages or missed opportunities. By ordering ahead, supporters ensure that their cause benefits from both seasonal generosity and essential spending.
Now Is the Time
The holiday season is nearly here, and now is the time to act. For administrators, this is your last chance to coordinate a group order and make sure everyone is ready. If your campaign is set up for individual ordering, you can use these social media techniques to get your supporters to order through the platform and use the FundScrip wallet to save time.
By stocking up on gift cards, supporters simplify their holiday shopping, reduce stress, and maximize contributions. The season becomes easier, more joyful, and more impactful. Have a jolly December!
