Christmas isn’t Christmas unless it involves giving to people who can’t give back. Anything else is just swapping, really.
So, it’s time for Reform’s (the United Reformed Church’s magazine) reverse Advent calendar.
Every day you put aside some money, let’s say £1, and at the end, you give the whole pot to a charity that is doing something good in the world on our behalf. This year, we’re going to keep going throughout Advent and the 12 days of Christmas – from Sunday 1 December until 5 January. If you keep up with that, at a pound a day, you’ll have £36 to give.
Every day Reform will feature a different charity, explaining what they could do with your money. Visit Reform's charity and Advent Christmas Calendar for days that go beyond 17 December. You can also follow it on Twitter and Facebook.
Have a good Christmas.
