A change of heart for Christmas
Christmas is a time when we wear our hearts on our sleeves. We tell our friends and family just how much they mean to us, and we often do this through gifts. Canadian Lutheran World Relief (CLWR) invites you to use the newly updated Gifts from the Heart catalogue when choosing your gifts this year. You will find many exciting changes in the new edition!
The catalogue is full of unique gifts that turn a donation to CLWR into a symbolic gift for your loved ones. You could buy a flock of forty chickens, for instance, for that uncle with the bottomless stomach. The uncle receives a gift card, while a family in the developing world gets the valuable gift of actual live chickens, a source of food and income.
If you have not already received your catalogue by mail, please contact us at 1.800.661.2597. We would be glad to rush you a copy.

Online gift giving
Gifts from the Heart has experienced some delays this year and CLWR wants to thank you for your patience in waiting for your catalogue, which you should have received by now if you are on our mailing list. Due to the delay, we have had many people inquiring about Gifts from the Heart online.
You can currently purchase all of the gifts in this year’s Gifts from the Heart through our secure website, www.clwr.org, by heading straight to our donations page. If you click on the large Gifts from the Heart graphic on our home page, you will be directed to the donations page.
At this time, the catalogue itself is not available online. We apologize for the inconvenience this causes and want to assure you that we are working diligently to make it available as quickly as possible. In the meantime, if you are considering a donation but would like more information regarding a gift or a donation in general, we would be happy to answer your questions personally. Please call us at 1.800.661.2597.
