Top 30 Charity Trends in December

While the holiday season is best known as a time for giving, the top December 2014 charity ideas also show that it's also an important time of the year to think about giving back.

When it comes to inspiring others to give, some of the most successful charity campaigns make donating or paying it forward as easy as possible. Some great examples include Common Peace, a donation platform that lets commuters donate a portion of the funds on their subway card to charity, or an interactive poster from Coca-Cola that encouraged people to rip off a piece and use it as wrapping paper.

If you’re looking for a gift that gives back this Christmas, items purchased from the Target x TOMS collaboration means that somebody else will be getting a blanket, meal or a pair of shoes in return.
