Giving a gift is rarely about the thing itself, it's a way of reaffirming the common ground and understanding between the people involved. That's why the best gifts are those that show real understanding of the receiver by the giver.
For some of our friends, a donation in their name is perfect way of affirming that connection. For others, we would give something else.
