Quick answer: The best Easter donor gifts are small, meaningful and clearly connected to the resurrection story or to the Holy Land. Choose one gift per donor level: an easy-to-mail keepsake (from $5) for your broad appeal, a lasting home piece (from $12) for monthly partners, and a centrepiece (from $25) for major donors. Easter 2027 falls on March 28, so most ministries choose their gift in December or January.

Why Easter is one of the strongest giving seasons
For many ministries, Easter is the second-biggest appeal of the year after year-end. Donors are already reflecting on the cross and the empty tomb, so a gift that carries that message feels like part of the story rather than a "premium". The right gift does three things:
- Says thank you in a way the donor will keep, not throw away.
- Reminds them of your ministry every time they see it.
- Lifts response and average gift when it is offered at the right donor level.
Over the last 15 years we have supplied more than 450,000 gifts for over 55 ministry fundraising campaigns. These are the Easter gifts we see work best, organised by donor level.
Entry-level gifts for your Easter appeal (from $5)
For a broad mailing or online appeal, the gift has to be light, affordable and easy to send.
- "He Is Risen" olive wood ornament – a simple star ornament with the Easter message. Ideal for acquisition mailings and church outreach. See the ornament
- The Hebrew Aaronic Blessing – Numbers 6:24–26 in Hebrew and English. Flat, beautiful and easy to include in an envelope. See the Aaronic Blessing
- Anointing oil set – a natural fit for prayer ministries and Easter prayer campaigns. See the anointing oil set
- Jerusalem keychain with the Traveler's Prayer – a practical keepsake donors carry every day. See the keychain
Gifts for monthly and sustaining partners (from $12)
Your monthly partners are the backbone of the ministry. Their Easter gift should feel more personal and last longer.
- Shema olive wood mezuzah – a blessing for the home that partners keep for years. See the mezuzah

Your Easter 2027 timeline
Easter Sunday 2027 is March 28. Working back from your mail or email date:
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| November – December 2026 | Shortlist 2–3 gifts and request free samples |
| December 2026 – January 2027 | Choose your gift, confirm quantities and customisation |
| January – February 2027 | Order. Stock items ship quickly from our Texas warehouse; allow extra time for custom verses or logos |
| February – March 2027 | Appeal goes out; gifts ship to donors |
Ordering early also gives you time to photograph the gift for your appeal letter, landing page and social media. A good photo of the gift often lifts response more than any other change to the appeal.
