Charity Christmas Cards to buy in 2022: Cards For Good Causes charity opens over 100 Christmas pop-up shops

For many of us, sending a card to our loved one during the festive period is a Christmas tradition, and Cards for Good Causes can help you make that gesture extra special by donating to charity at the same time.

We all want to make sure our Christmas cards hold a heartfelt message, and for some of us that might mean sending homemade Christmas cards or penning a meaningful note full of festive love. But for those who aren't as creative, or don't have such a way with words, sending a charity Christmas card can be a great way to show the same sentiment.

And luckily, Cards for Good Causes is here to help. Every year they open shops around the country selling a wide range of Christmas cards and gifts, all of which raise money for local and national charities - and this year there's over 100 shops nationwide. Keep reading to find out more about Cards for Good Causes, the charities they support and how you can buy their Christmas cards...

What is Cards for Good Causes?

Cards for Good Causes is the UK’s largest multi-charity card and gift retailer, raising funds for UK charities by selling their cards and gifts. Though they operate all year round, the festive period sees Cards for Good Causes open shops across the country. 

Buzzing with festive good cheer, the pop-up shops invite local residents, visitors, and tourists to shop for good causes and explore the selection of cards, beautiful seasonal gifts, stocking fillers, wrap, decorations and tableware, and they've raised some £40 million in the last ten years.

Their card selection this year features an amazing mix of traditional religious cards, gorgeous old masters, beautiful landscapes, as well as festive favourites and cute animals - there’s something for everyone.

And, with the help of supporters, the festive shops aim to raise £250,000 this Christmas season in aid of over 70 local and national charities. They’re the cards and gifts that give back!

Jeremy Lune, CEO of Cards For Good Causes says: "We can’t wait to meet everyone this year in our shops! Please come volunteer with us, or come and get your Christmas gifts whilst supporting the charities of your choice. I wish everyone a very festive Christmas and hope to see you soon!"
