Favors for a cause???

kicou, on May 11, 2009 at 3:18 PM Posted in Planning 0 8

Hey everyone, I really like the idea of supporting a cause. That being said, I would like my wedding favors to support one. Now my question is this: which foundation or cause do i donate to???

Do you guys have any ideas? I know about cancer foundations, HIV, feed the hungry, diabetes, heart disease,... what else is out there??(Suggestions, anyone???)

Thanks in advance

    I'm not sure how you intend to incorporate supporting a cause with your favors. Please explain. Do you mean, in lieu of favors, donating the money to a cause and making your guests aware of this?

    In reference to what "cause", one that maybe could have some personal reference to both the bride and groom. At this time in all of our lives, I think, feeding the hungry is a great one. Our economy is making it tough on everyone and putting food on the table is difficult for many.

    I love this idea. Make a Wish Foundation and St. Judes are both great causes. If we can help let us know. Maybe we can work something out we like to help when we can.

    1-877-952-1555 or 707-498-9358 ask for Norine

    There are two ways of doing it having the organization give you favor that you can use, or they give you awareness papers to give to your guests.

    He hasn't lost anyone with a close to him to any sickness or anything.

    Hi kicou,

    On my website, you can find "In Favor of a Cure" breast cancer favors designed for weddings. 10% of the net profits benefit the Young Survival Coalition, an international charity devoted to improving the lives of young women with breast cancer. On top of that I'll give you a 10% discount on your favor order. Just use discount code, 3906TEN at the checkout. Take a look at www.weddingfavordiva.com

    Best wishes

    I love this whole idea too. My FH and I decided to have a tree planted in honor of each of our guests through the Arbor Day Foundation ($1 per tree). We had also considered the ASPCA, Humane Society and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) because we're both animal/nature lovers. Whatever you choose, make sure it's something that is close to your heart and something you both can be passionate about. Good luck!
