Holiday group gift for a teacher

Class parents pooling one holiday gift for the teacher instead of a stack of small ones.

Holiday-time teacher gifts run into the same problem as end-of-year: lots of small things from lots of well-meaning families. Giftaro lets the class pool one meaningful holiday gift — a hotel night, a real restaurant gift card, a piece they've mentioned wanting — and skip the coordination drama.

Typical contribution per person: $15–$40.
