Thoughtful gifting, made simple

Give from the heart. Let them choose the moment.

ihdaa is a digital gifting platform made for thoughtful giving. Choose a shop they will love, add your message, and send in moments. They choose when and how to enjoy it - all at once or little by little - and their gift never expires.

For Community Partners

Give with dignity. Let families choose.

Community Partners fund gifts through ihdaa and share them with the families they support. Each family chooses the shop, the moment and what they need. Less waste. More dignity. No expiry.

Partner with ihdaa

Over a Community Partner worker's shoulder: the ihdaa portal on her laptop lists gifts to send, and a phone beside it glows with a gift.

Our pledge

Giving should create more good.

ihdaa is built to make giving go further. We cover our costs and pay our team fairly. After that, half of the remaining surplus goes to community causes through our Community Partners and half goes back into developing ihdaa and supporting the people who build it. We will publish the figures here.
