Remember your favorite teacher? If they made you feel special, chances are you do. That feeling is most likely the reason that some teachers so memorable. Fact is, ordinary people in our society have a wonderful opportunity to have an extraordinary impact on the world through teaching. For example, great teachers motivate curiosity, inspire discovery and add wonder. If your child had a teacher like that during the full school year of COVID-19, now is the perfect time to #thankateacher: shop gift cards.
The Best Teachers Make Us Feel Special
Through the global pandemic of COVID-19, educators have been unrelenting in their commitment to students. They have gone to great lengths to add knowledge and improve test scores. But, the gift of being able to make students feel special is unique. As the expression goes, they may forget what you said– but won’t forget how you made them feel.
#ThankATeacher – Class of 2021
Classroom life is demanding. There’s rarely a chance to award the proper recognition to teaching staff. So, aside from a gift card reward or chatchke, we pause to reflect and #thankateacher.
Great teachers can affect eternity. We can never tell where their influence ends.
Despite many constraints, great teachers are unstoppable in their passion for sharing.
Staying cool under pressure, great teachers keep classrooms focused and engaged.
How many hats does a teacher wear? Think parent, friend, coach, cheerleader, confidant.
No matter how hard the day, great teachers remain kind, patient and dependable.
As role models for lifelong learning, demonstrate the joys of discovery and community.
The strong, guiding presence of a caring teacher is rarely forgotten.
Only a digital rewards platform like eGifter can offer the best recognition rewards card as a way to say thanks.

When your children are grown with families of their own, what do you want them to remember about the #pandemicholidays of 2020? Clearly, this is a question for the ages. Because of social distancing restrictions from COVID-19, we simply can’t be together as usual this year. At eGifter, we always see the glass as very full. We are convinced that gift cards can supply just the magic you need. Read on for a uniquely wonderful gifting idea that can have a long lasting impact on your child and your family. The simple act of kindness (and fun!) suggested here can bring everyone together in unexpected, meaningful ways. For everyone you love, especially the grandparents, lift holiday spirits with gift cards!
Make it Extra Special for the Grandparents
If you’re lucky enough to be in the ‘sandwich generation”, you’re certainly hyper-focused on your folks. Grandparents have had it particularly rough this year, what with not being able to hug the grandkids. If they live close enough for a drive-by, this post is meant especially for you.
Shop For a Gift Card. Select Print Delivery.
The holiday magic we’re talking about is valuable but not necessarily expensive. eGifter sells hundreds of gift cards for $20 and less. Shop from hundreds of top brands at retail stores and restaurants your parents will enjoy. The idea here is to help your child produce a special gift card creation for a grandparent (or, a relative or friend.) The personal message and photo will become part of the lasting treasure that means the world to that special someone.
Children love it when their parents participate in their games and activities. Today is a great day to spend coloring together! Decorate the “Giftable PDF” with stickers, messages and pictures. Take photos of the kids doing the artwork. Shoot a few selfies together. Years down the road, you’ll love looking back on this special memory. The end result of today’s arts and crafts project will be a “Giftable PDF”. This neatly folded, handmade greeting card displays the valued gift card, redeemable at retail. Alongside the gift card are personal messages and photos. Together, it’s a bundle of joy.
Christmas Morning, Knock at the Door….
Place the Giftable PDF in a box, gift bag or envelope. Leave it on the doorstep. Ring the bell and take a bunch of socially distant steps backward.
Witness the Moment of Joy and Delight
The looks on their faces as they see their family a safe distance away will be priceless. For sure, they’ll appreciate the gift card, meant to buy an item they need or want. But, the real bonus here is the “Giftable PDF”, packed with sentiments they can savor for years to come. It doesn’t take much to lift holiday spirits with gift cards! Forevermore, 2020 can be remembered as the year of love and compassion.
A Life Lesson – Compassion and Family Values
In the year of a pandemic, there is a silver lining. We have a firsthand, personal opportunity to demonstrate care and compassion to our children. The time spent together to create happiness for loved ones is a true lasting treasure. What’s more, the joy they’ll have created will bring smiles and warm hearts for years to come. Your children will learn to be better friends and more sensitive humans. Fostering a sense of family values and social responsibility is the magic we need. And, we’ll be building future generations that can truly change the world.
Traditions create a sense of comfort and belonging, especially during challenging and unusual times, like the #pandemicholidays of 2020. Holiday traditions and customs reinforce values and create lasting memories with family and friends. That’s why today’s answer to “how are you going to make the holidays special this year?” is particularly sweet. Everyone knows the eGifter Marketplace is flush with hundreds of gifting options. There, you’ll discover hundreds of retail branded gift cards — all holiday shopper certified. 🛍 As the Jewish Festival of Chanukah begins, let the sweet treat gift cards roll! Yes, indeed — we’re talking about jelly donuts — a Chanukah gift card tradition.
Why Jelly Donuts on Chanukah?
The Jewish holiday of Chanukah celebrates victory over a tyrant king and the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem. After the Temple was destroyed, there was one cruse of pure oil that should have kept the menorah lit for just one day. But, miraculously, the oil and light lasted for 8 days. Long story short, it was one cruse of oil that ignited the Chanukah miracle. So, each December, we celebrate the “festival of lights” to represent light that shines on all future generations. We actively participate by spinning dreidels, lighting menorahs to enjoy foods cooked in oil. So, there you have it — the donut!
The Best Jelly Donuts Around
At eGifter, we have the recipe for great gifts for any holiday. As you know, we sell gift cards galore. It’s easy and fun to make this years’s holiday cozy and bright, whether you celebrate religiously, spiritually or neither! Send them gift cards for jelly donuts — and bring on the smiles, comfort and memories.

No matter what holiday you observe, it’s always fun and interesting to trace back the origin of traditions. The more holiday history we know, the more connected and joyful we can be.

Like other great retail branded gift cards available at eGifter.com, Fanatics.com checks every proverbial box when it comes to quality, selection, creativity and service. Their loyal base of dedicated players and spectators (plus those that love them!) is deeply engaged with the Fanatics brand as only fanatical sports fans can be! We always love serving Fanatics customers and we’re delighted to offer a limited time special promotion with deep savings while Fanatics gift card supplies last. Through 4/24/20, get a $50 Fanatics Gift Card for just $42.50 (promo Code: FANS420. But our ability to offer great deals and savings to Fanatics gift card customers is not what makes us proud at this particular moment. In our opinion, it takes more than great products, services, gift card distribution, customer service and engineering innovation for a business to transform from great to truly legendary, like Fanatics. To that end, Michael Rubin and the entire Fanatics team get kudos for demonstrating the manufacturing prowess and heart for which America has always been known. American pride, indeed.
Manufacturing Ingenuity: A Heroic Response
A Clear Gap Becomes Apparent
As the nation and the world watched the vertical climb of statistical rates of infection, hospitalizations and mortality, one of the most reported shortfalls in our ability to respond became clear. Healthcare workers were becoming dramatically limited in their ability to perform front line jobs due to a lack of personal protective equipment (PPE). As we watched news footage and read news articles, the PPE deficit occurred as insurmountable.
If we can save even one life, that’s better than making baseball uniforms and jerseys.”
Enter Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, who began to lose sleep along with the rest of us, wondering how to make a difference in the fight against the COVID-19 virus pandemic that continues to rock the world. On March 17, he heard about the shortages of tests, respirators and everyday supplies that created severe challenges for health-care workers. In the uniquely powerful position of running a massive fabric-based production operation in the U.S., Rubin would soon realize an opportunity in the making.
Pause on Jersey Production. Pivot to Masks & Gowns.
Like other countless numbers of manufacturing facilities forced to the sidelines due to restrictions imposed by social distancing, health concerns, governmental restrictions, supply chain limitations, depressed demand and more, Fanatics’ manufacturing operations were halted. Bottom line, no baseball season meant no production. From there, it did not take long for Rubin to realize that a million yards of fabric intended to manufacture baseball uniforms were lying dormant at the company’s manufacturing facility in Easton, PA.
One Million Masks and Gowns, Coming Right Up.
Said Rubin in a telephone interview, ““When the country is in need the way it is, it’s our privilege and opportunity to try to chip in in a small way. If we can save even one life, that’s better than making baseball uniforms and jerseys.” And so began the collaboration between Major League Baseball and its official jersey manufacturer, Fanatics, to address the shortage of protective masks and gowns for hospital workers. There are now about 100 employees working “extra distanced and in a very clean and safe environment” to make one million masks and gowns to donate to hospitals in Pennsylvania, with the hopes of eventually extending this to New Jersey and New York.” Fanatics and MLB are taking on the cost of production.
We Salute the Leaders and Innovators Among Us
There is no shortage of lessons to be learned from sharp and committed business leaders like Michael Rubin, CEO of our retail gift card partner, Fanatics. With an unprecedented need for solutions dictated by our very survival, we’re convinced that goodness and innovation will emerge, mirroring the bold initiatives taken by Rubin and those on his team.
It will take a set of complex business, manufacturing and human mandates, simply stated below, to lead the way forward.

For the college students in your life… “This was my first time purchasing gift cards from eGifter. Both of my children live a distance away from me.

All three of my boys loved their movie tickets because they got to take their girlfriends to the movies for Valentine’s day ♥️”
For the boss…”I love that text gifting is available. I work remotely and sent a gift to my boss via text because she’s on the other side of the country. This was incredibly convenient and worked out great! I also loved that I was able to schedule this gift to be delivered at just the right moment. She received it with her morning coffee just as I had planned. Just perfect! I will return for other gifting opportunities!”
