Charity Christmas cards

    Hello,

    Would anybody know if there is a way of comparing all of the charity Christmas cards to find out which one passes on the most money to the actual charity?
    I know I could go onto each individual website but I'm just wondering is there any information available to the public in this regard.

    I was in Tesco last night and was going to buy some cards but I picked up Aware cards and Alzheimer's Society cards and neither had any information on how much goes to the charity itself.

    If the amount is very little I would prefer to just make a direct donation.

    Thanks

    I bought them from the Irish premature baby charity last year as 100% of the money goes to the charity.

    If the charity cards are sold in shops it is usually just a percentage of the sale that goes to the charity. You are better off contacting the charity directly, usually most of them have an online shop on there website.

    Croi the Heart & Stroke Charity have lovely cards on there website €5.99 for 12.

    I buy from irish premature babies as well, they only sell online so all the money goes directly to them, they buy equipment for sick/prem babies around the country
