[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The hosts discreetly asked parents prior to the party: What charity/cause does your child care about?

Each guest was surprised upon departure to be handed an envelope. Inside? A beautiful card that identified a charity that had received a $100 donation in the guest’s name. And a note thanking them for coming to the party, being a friend and caring about animals/the earth/the community.

Kids were 12. Perfect age to understand it. They were all really inspired. Obviously, a wealthy host and not something everyone can do. But I loved it.

(And no junk or candy.)[/quote]

Holllyyyyy shi!. This is amazing/insane. I can't tell if I want to be those parents or those kids :)[/quote]

Sounds more like a self righteous move (and tax benefit).

I bet half those kids just shrugged and wished there was something edible or at least tangible /gift card than some fancy-schmancy note about a charity donation.[/quote]

You're just jealous you can't afford to do that.  I'm sure that's something the kids will remember forever (more than a bunch of plastic junk anyway).[/quote]

The only thing "the kids will remember forever" is that Billy's bday party tucked at the end b/c the party favor was a dumb card with some long-winded note.[/quote]
