Give Graduation Gifts They'll Love

Whether your graduate is going to college, heading into the working world, volunteering or traveling, they most likely don’t own all the things they’ll need for this next big step. That’s why the right graduation gift can make a big difference to a young person.

Graduation gifts don’t have to be practical, however. Some splurge on technological gadgets while others prefer sentimental mementos to honor school memories or achievements. Acts of service, such as doing the graduate’s laundry for a semester, are another favorite gift idea.

So whether you give graduation jewelry, a toaster, or home-baked cookies, the trick is to choose a gift within your price range that your graduate will love. A gift that allows them to look back with pride, as they move forward into the future.
