Gift Card Giver

I spent the evening documenting a "Get Carded" event for gift card giver. Check out their website at giftcardgiver.com

The concept behind gift card giver, is that almost everyone has unused gift cards, that they have been given for one occasion or another, sitting unused in their wallets. So I joined friends of Gift Card Giver as they got together to "Get Carded" at a local East Atlanta home. They gathered for an evening of food, games,a silent art auction, and live music, but not before they got carded at the door. Each person attending the event was asked to bring a gift card that they wouldn't mind donating to a cause. The cause that these East Atlanta friends decided to support was the East Atlanta kids Club.

After all was said and done, the Gift Card Giver house party in East Atlanta raised around $1395 for the kids club. The house party was a sweet success. To see more from house parties in different cities, check out their website here.
