Have a look at our list of gifts below, make your selection and then use our order form. Click here for more information on how our Ethical Gift Scheme works. Unlike some other schemes, we actually purchase the gift you choose and ensure it goes to the intended recipient - no substitutions! Where possible, all our gifts will be purchased in The Gambia, thus avoiding transportation costs, helping the local economy, and providing very good value for money. Our gift prices my be rounded, but are very close to the actual price we have to pay, either in the Gambia or the UK. In some other schemes your donation may only buy part of a gift! Some of our gifts help the Gunjur Environmental Protection and Development Group (GEPADG), which works on environmental projects in southern Gambia. (more information)
