Charitable Gifts for
the Family

Charitable contributions can be great gifts for the entire family. Memberships to many local institutions offer free admission, discounts on classes and in gift shops. Your thoughtfulness will be shared and enjoyed all year!



Tribute Gifts

Gifts for the person who has everything is always tough, which is why tribute gifts have always been very popular. Making a donation in the name of someone is a wonderful way to let them know how much you care without giving an unwanted or unneeded item.

There are terrific organizations like UNICEF and Heifer International, however Racine is also home to a number of charities that will appreciate your contribution and will make a big difference on our own community.
