Group gift for a 50th birthday

50 deserves a real gift. Pool one meaningful thing instead of fifteen wrapped boxes.

50 is the kind of birthday people remember. The default — a card and a bottle — is fine, but pooled it could be a trip, a watch, a memorable experience. Giftaro is the easiest way to coordinate without anyone playing accountant. One link, any amount, the gift goes to one person's account, and the birthday person gets a real thing.

Typical contribution per person: $50–$200.
