We get it—Christmas shopping can be tricky. You want something thoughtful, something special… but how many mugs, socks, or gadgets does one person really need?
Here’s an idea: instead of giving another “just okay” gift, why not give something with a lasting impact? With Oxfam Unwrapped charity gift cards, you’re not just checking a box on your holiday list—you’re changing lives.
Each Unwrapped gift card helps fund Oxfam projects that tackle the root causes of poverty. Our projects partner with local communities to bring life-saving humanitarian aid, long-term poverty solutions, and real social change to communities around the world.
Ready to spread some holiday cheer and make a positive impact? Here are unique Christmas present ideas.

Unique gift ideas for teachers
Stuck on what to get the amazing teachers in your life? Give them the Key Moments Bundle.
Teachers always find ways to make every occasion memorable for their students, and with this bundle, they’ll be ready for whatever the year throws their way. From birthdays to celebrations and everything in between, the Key Moments Bundle covers all the bases. It’s basically the ultimate 365-day survival kit for thoughtful gifting.

Christmas gifts for the in-laws
You can’t go wrong with gifts that speak to your in-law’s passions!
For example, if your in-laws enjoy planting and cultivating their gardens, the Christmas Garden will surely delight them. This gift card supports Oxfam’s programs that provide people experiencing poverty with resources to grow their gardens. This means they can secure access to nutritious food and sustainable income!
Now, for in-laws passionate about fishing (or simply enjoy a good catch), the Christmas Fish is a fantastic choice! This gift supports Oxfam’s work in empowering women in Cambodia, working hard to protect the Mekong River while providing a source of income for their families.
Unique Christmas gift ideas for someone who has everything
Ah, the age-old dilemma: finding the perfect gift for that special someone who insists they already have it all. So why not surprise them with something wonderfully unexpected—like a Christmas Cow or a Christmas Handloom?
When you give a Christmas Cow gift card, you’re helping champion self-sufficiency in many communities. They can either raise chickens or grow vegetables they can eat or sell.
On the other hand, the Christmas Handloom gift card is as colourful as it is empowering! With each purchase, you give women access to training that boosts their entrepreneurial skills and helps them grow their handloom businesses.
Unique Christmas gift ideas for adults
For a Christmas gift that clucks with charm and warms the heart, choose something like the Christmas Chicken gift card. It’s the perfect surprise for adults who appreciate a gift with a twist.
This unique present empowers women in Timor-Leste with the skills they need to launch thriving businesses—whether it’s raising chickens or growing vegetables. The best part? They can use their earnings to invest in even more farm animals, like goats and cows, building their way to a more financially independent future!
Christmas gifts for women
If you loved the idea of the Christmas Chicken, add the Christmas Duck to your holiday gifting lineup. It’s a thoughtful gift for the women in your life and a way to help women around the world create a better future for themselves.
By gifting a Christmas Duck charity gift card, you’re also supporting Oxfam’s programs that equip women in Timor-Leste with the skills they need to start their businesses. Whether raising chickens or growing fresh fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, watermelons, and chillies, these women can save money and reinvest in more animals— goats, cows, and pigs—to create sustainable livelihoods.
Christmas gifts for men
If you’ve already got your eyes on the Christmas Chicken and Duck, why not complete the farmyard trio with the Christmas Goat? This quirky gift isn’t just a fun addition to your holiday shopping list—it’s a perfect present for the men in your life who appreciate something unique and impactful.
With this gift, you also support Oxfam’s programs that empower women in Timor-Leste with the resources and skills they need to start sustainable businesses. Whether it’s raising goats, chickens, or ducks, these women can generate income, save for the future, and invest in business growth.
