According to WWF on the organisation`s website (www.panda.org), their unique gifts make everyone smile: Put a smile on anyone's face with one of these special online gifts, and you'll smile too. Unique Gifts - when`s the last time you gave someone dung as a present?
By buying online you can either print or email the personalised PDF certificate Gifts that Last - they're helping WWF find long term solutions to benefit people and nature. When you buy a gift from panda.org/gifts you will be sent to a page where you can download a personalized certificate. The certificate's got both your name and theirs so that they can proudly display the gift that you chose for them.
You could even frame it for them before you give it to them. And then WWF staff make your gift happen. A polar bear really will get a tattoo because of your gift, and the organisation will be rehabilitating turtles so that they can be re-released into the ocean.
As founder of WWF, Sir Peter Scott (1909-1989), said it one time: We shan't save all we should like to, but we shall save a great deal more than if we had never tried.
All the gifts will make a huge difference to WWF’s conservation work, both with these individual gifts and to our global conservation goals.

These gifts are perfect Christmas presents for a better long living planet, but not only for the Christmas. It`s not a one time job.
