Why donate your unused gift cards?

Unused gift cards can take up unnecessary space in your wallet and even feel like they’re being wasted. When you’re wondering what to do with unwanted gift cards, donating them is a great option. Not only can you eliminate the burden of carrying them around, but you can support a great cause.

Rather than continue to let them go unspent, consider donating them to St. Jude through Cardcash and turn them into a monetary donation to support kids with cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
