Question
How do American Diabetes Association wedding favor donations work?
Answer
A bride and groom decide to give a charitable, tax-deductible donation to the American Diabetes Association in lieu of buying traditional wedding favors for their wedding guests. They may designate their wedding favor donation in honor or in memory of a family member or friend. Or they may give a donation in their own names.
The suggested donation amount is $2-$5 per wedding guest.
To announce their gift, wedding couples may order personalized wedding favor donation announcements for their wedding tables: their choice of scrolls, table tent cards or bookmarks.
In addition, wedding couples may order complimentary invitation donation cards for their wedding invitations that request guests to make a donation to the American Diabetes Association in lieu of traditional gifts.
