Almost every Briton has a Jewish friend. In a
multi-cultural country, it can be easy to offend people of different beliefs
without any intention. Let's avoid that. But let's also avoid giving something
too expensive. Being mis-informed, even the brightest Briton may just get
something expensive but useless or meaningless this upcoming Yom Kippur. These
three gift ideas guarantee you give something meaningful even on a budget!
1. Shabbat Candle Holders
Jerusalem fitted Candlesticks or aluminium flower
candle holders are beautiful to look at in any Jewish home. Jewish families
value their candle holders as it is an integral part of any ceremony, including
Yom Kippur. Giving these as gifts save you hundreds of pounds because £1 is the
mall price per Shabbat candle holder. You could get a premium one for about £5
each.
2. Kosher Gift Basket
You could never go wrong giving food items to Jewish
families during Yom Kippur and the Kosher Gift Basket is the best way to give a
batch of crackers, teas, chocolates, cookies or anything else edible. If you're
celebrating with a Jewish family pot-luck style, then the Kosher Gift Basket is
all you will need!
3. Food and Wine
If all else fails, bring some food and wine.
Personally-cooked food Jewish families appreciate completely. As it is made
from love and passion, you give a part of yourself at a lower cost too!
