I got an individual whom I don't know particularly well, and I'm stuck for ideas for a gift. But, he is currently in New York working with Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, and made a Facebook status about how important and special this organization is. So, I was thinking I'd make a $25 donation to BC/EFA instead of a physical gift- it's less useless crap that I'd be making a huge guess on, and it's doing good. But, it is the office Christmas party... so would it be completely uncouth? Good idea? Bad idea?
I have co-workers who have REQUESTED that in lieu of an actual present for the Secret Santa. Granted, we're all sorts of crazy do-gooders here so YMMV.

Is $25 the spending limit? Could you do a $20 donation, and then get him $5 worth of scratch-off lottery tickets? The two minutes of fun may be worth it.

I think if I were the co-worker, I'd appreciate a $25 donation much more than a $20 donation and lottery tickets.
