Our virtual gifts are available throughout the year with a choice of beautiful and sweet virtual images to leave on a tribute as gifts. These have proven incredibly popular for any occasion, but also for those 'just because' moments, with more than 2,500 gifted every month.
What's more, MuchLoved charity partners get access to additional virtual gift choices on special dates throughout the year.

Gifts are visible to you in your Charity Partner Area, and can be added to tributes by either your tribute visitors and owners or by yourself. Year-round, we're providing a variety of gifting features to you, so they can be as special as your supporters:
Virtual Gifts are available throughout the year, and there is something for every one.
Special Edition Gifts are available for a limited time only on special dates throughout the year.
Bespoke Gifts are your own branded virtual gifts that we create at your request. These are added to your Partner area for use all year. Think badges, ribbons, or branded cuddly toys. What will you commission?
A postcard 'sent' from your holidays; a box of chocolates for a choco-holic; some flowers on a special day - gifts are just one of many ways to show we care. The opportunity to personalise a tribute is central to helping bereaved individuals remember their loved one. Our Special Edition Virtual Gifts are just one example of how personalised MuchLoved tribute pages can be, and how we are constantly developing and adding features to delight supporters and fundraisers alike.
We also personalise for you! The opportunity to have branded gifts adds an additional flair to our tribute fund scheme. We also release seasonal social media assets to help you create beautiful scroll-stopping posts for all your feeds, and to celebrate your achievements. A fully branded dedication page can be created in a matter of minutes, for a memory wall, a special campaign or more.
What would you give a devoted father or father-figure? What would you bring back from your summer holidays? Virtual gifts are such a special way to continue the bond with a special loved one, and show you care. Beyond the joy of giving, virtual gifts are a wonderful opportunity to steward your supporters.
There are many creative ways to use Special Edition Virtual Gifts, so to get you thinking about what your supporters might like, here are a few ideas:
