Gift Catalogue Frequently Asked Questions

The SAF's Gifts of Compassion Catalogue is a unique opportunity for you to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families in need. It offers a range of meaningful gifts that you can select from to provide support to those facing challenging circumstances. These gifts can include essential items like school supplies, clothing, medical care, or tools for self-employment. By choosing these items from the catalogue, you can make a direct and impactful contribution to those who need it the most.
