Give in honor of someone special; send a card to share the news.
As members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), we believe that God is calling us into the world – together. And with generous, loving hands, we can make a difference.
ELCA Good Gifts is your opportunity to provide critical support to the ministries and programs that mean the most to you and the people you love.
Give by December 12 to personalize printed cards in time for Christmas!
SHOP ELCA GOOD GIFTS to help someone in need.
Searching for the perfect gift? Shop ELCA Good Gifts and choose from more than 50 life-changing, charitable gifts to give in lieu of traditional Christmas presents.
Your donation will be used where it is needed most within the wider category of each gift you’ve selected. (For example, a gift of vaccinations may be used to support other health care initiatives.) This allows our church to stay adaptive, flexible and effective in the work that we do. Because we seek to honor your generosity and keep administrative costs low, we do not track individual financial gifts to specific families or locations in the U.S. or abroad.
Give online and you can personalize free, printed cards to be sent directly to you or your loved ones. Make your donation by 11:59 p.m. Central time, Dec. 12, for expected delivery before Dec. 25. If you give ELCA Good Gifts after that deadline, you can still generate e-cards or download PDF cards to print at home anytime.
