The peace symbol has been with us since 1958. It was first unveiled at a British “ban-the-bomb” rally on April 4, 1958. It was then wildly used in the 60’s during the Vietnam era as a symbol for peace and as a call to end the war.
Many people recognize the peace symbol, but they don’t know who made it or what the symbol actually represents. The symbol was created by Gerald Holtom, a British graphic designer. The three lines are supposed to represent a man in despair, while the circle is the world.
It’s believed that the symbol became popular, because it’s design is so simple and easy to replicate. Today, it’s become a hieroglyphic for most cultures and is recognized throughout the world as a desire for peace and human rights.

Are you looking for a unique gift idea ? It can be difficult to shop for a unique gift these days and not only because there are so many products to choose from. Part of the process in finding unique gift is understanding the sensibilities of the gift recipient. What would he or she consider a unique gift, as opposed to what someone else or even you would consider unusual?
A prepaid gift card may be a unique gift to consider. While many people may think that giving someone money instead of a physical present is impersonal, remember that it’s up to each individual’s tastes. Someone could love a prepaid credit card as a unique gift, especially someone who loves to shop but is hindered by finances. Youngsters love to shop around a crowded store knowing they have a gift card!
Another idea for a unique gift would be the charity donation-prepaid gift card. This unique gift idea combines the concept of a prepaid credit card with a charitable donation made in another person’s name. Such a unique gift card might see 10% of the card’s worth donated to a charity of the recipient’s choosing. This is a unique gift and a unique opportunity to pass along the joy of giving.
If you are looking for a unique gift then consider the Giving Tree Give Card . This prepaid debit card allows the recipient to choose from among a store of gift items. This unique gift card can be used almost anywhere and is the equivalent of cash, though the card can be personalized to the recipient. Giving Tree also sets aside 10% of the card so that it will be donated to charity. The recipient can now be satisfied from both the gift and the feeling that comes from doing something nice for others.
