Five Star Gift Ideas

That's wonderful to hear that your son enjoys volunteering and helping others. Here are a few gift ideas that celebrate his passion for making a difference:

1. Volunteer T-Shirt: Gift him a t-shirt that showcases his dedication to volunteering. Look for one that features a message about helping others or has a design related to the causes he supports. It will not only be a thoughtful gesture but also serve as a conversation starter when he wears it during his volunteer work.

2. Donation in His Name: Consider making a donation to a shelter or soup kitchen in your son's name. This will not only support the cause he cares about but also show him that you recognize and appreciate his efforts. Many organizations offer certificates or acknowledgments to recognize such donations, which you can present to him as a tangible reminder of his impact.

3. Volunteer Supplies Kit: Put together a kit with all the essentials he may need while volunteering. Include items like a reusable water bottle, hand sanitizer, first aid kit, gloves, and a small notebook and pen for jotting down important information or taking notes during his shifts. This practical and thoughtful gift will ensure that he is well-equipped and prepared during his volunteering activities.

4. Personalized Photo Book: Create a photo book documenting your son's journey as a volunteer. Include pictures of him in action, along with heartfelt messages and quotes related to volunteering. Seeing the impact he has made and the smiles he has brought to others' faces will inspire and remind him of the value of his work.

5. Volunteer-inspired Jewelry: Look for jewelry that symbolizes volunteerism, such as a necklace or bracelet featuring a charm in the shape of a helping hand or a heart. This subtle yet meaningful gift will serve as a constant reminder of his dedication to making a difference.

6. Workshop or Training Session: Help further your son's skills and knowledge by gifting him a workshop or training session related to volunteering or community service. This could include courses on communication skills, leadership development, or learning more about the specific causes he is passionate about. It will not only enhance his capabilities but also show your support for his continued growth as a volunteer.

Remember, the most important thing is to acknowledge and encourage his passion for volunteering. By choosing a gift that aligns with his interests, you are showing your love and support for his noble endeavors.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
