Dad doesn’t need another multi-tool. He’s still working out the last one.
So this year, skip the socks, ditch the mugs, and give him something with actual impact (and a decent punchline).
Oxfam Unwrapped’s quirky Father’s Day cards are funny, thoughtful and fund life-changing projects around the world. From toilet paper to ducks, each card comes with a cheeky message and a real donation to someone who needs it.
So whether your dad’s a pun enthusiast, a goat lover, or just impossible to shop for, we’ve got the kind of card he’ll remember. And not just because it features a chicken in a hat.
Let’s take a look at the funniest, weirdest, most heartwarming Father’s Day cards you can give — and why they do a whole lot more than make him laugh.
Why a funny card is the perfect Father’s Day gift
Dads are tricky to buy for. They say they don’t want anything. They shrug off suggestions. Then they go and buy whatever it is themselves.
But one thing most dads appreciate? A good laugh. Especially the kind that comes with a side of meaning.
That’s why a funny Father’s Day card isn’t just a last-minute option — it’s a small-but-mighty gift in its own right. One that says, “I see you, I get your sense of humour, and I wanted to do something good in your name.”
Whether it’s a goat joke, a toilet paper pun, or a duck that funds a just livelihood, a charity card with personality hits the sweet spot. It’s lighthearted but thoughtful. Quirky but kind.
So if your dad’s the type who appreciates a clever quip more than a novelty tie, you’re in the right place. These cards aren’t just funny, they fund real-world change. And that’s something to smile about.
Quirky Father’s Day gift cards
Animal instincts
For dads who love a good pun, a cheeky grin, or an actual goat, these quirky Father’s Day cards deliver farmyard laughs with world-changing results. Each one helps families earn a sustainable income — and earns you full points for originality.
You goat this, Dad
He’s the GOAT, and now he’s got the goat to prove it. This legendary card gives small business owners the skills they need to become profitable. Now that’s worthwhile, and (let’s be honest) more interesting than socks. Goat big or goat home.
Cluckin’ good dad
He taught you how to change a tyre, cook a mean steak, and cross the road without looking like a chicken. Say thanks with a card that supports families living in poverty to become chicken farmers. Egg-cellent choice, honestly.
For a quacking great dad
Let’s hear it for the dad jokes, the wonky tool collections, and the loudest sneeze on the block. This feathered number supports women to become sustainable farmers. Not bad for a quack-up.
Moo-velous Dad
Not all heroes wear capes — some wear Crocs and mow the lawn in straight lines. Celebrate him with a cow card that supports farming families with the skills they need to start their own business. Udderly brilliant.
You're off the hook
For the dad who reels in compliments without even trying. This card funds sustainable fishing skills in communities that need it most. Real impact, no fishy business.
The practical jokers
They’re functional. They’re funny. They’re everything Dad wants in a card, plus a whole lot of support for people living in poverty. These gifts support clean water, veggie gardens, hygiene and health essentials.
Corny but thoughtful
Dig this: it’s a card about vegetables... and it’s actually good. This practical pick helps fund thriving gardens that grow fresh food and future skills. A little corny, but deeply nourishing (just like Dad).
Dad rating: 10/10 for dads who compost and tell the same joke every summer BBQ.
Hydration station, Papa edition
Nothing says “I love you” like clean, safe water. This card helps fund clean water systems in places that need it most. It’s refreshingly useful.
You’re on a roll, Dad!
Finally, a card that wipes the floor with the rest. Our toilet paper card is a cheeky favourite that funds hygiene support around the world — and gets a genuine laugh every single time.
Dad rating: Legendary. Even your uncle will chuckle.
First aid for a first-class Dad
For the guy who’s patched up every scraped knee and broken heart. This card helps address health inequalities, including for The First Peoples of Australia. Practical, powerful, and no bandage required.
Big-hearted laughs
For the dad who quietly makes the world better and loudly makes terrible jokes. These cards fund clean energy, forest protection, inclusive support and fair livelihoods, and still leave room for a cheeky grin.
Bright idea, Dad
He’s always full of energy (especially after that second cuppa). This card helps bring solar power and clean energy to communities tackling poverty. It’s a powerful gift and a bright idea for a brighter future.
Dad rating: For the man who’s been lighting up rooms (and forgetting to switch them off) for decades.
You’re unbeleafably good, Dad
This card is tree-mendously thoughtful. It helps farmers boost their crop yields, create a more stable and reliable food supply and transform the lives of people living in poverty. Perfect for the outdoorsy dad (or the one who just really loves mulch).
Loom with a view
Celebrate Dad’s finely woven wisdom with this card that helps women kickstart their own business (like making their own textiles). A gift that supports fair work and beautiful craft.
Stand for something bigger
This isn’t a joke card — and that’s exactly the point. It supports people with disabilities to access the tools and advocacy they need to thrive. A powerful pick for a dad who believes everyone deserves a fair go.
Dad rating: For the father figure who stands up, speaks out, and shows up.
Sweet as Dad gifts
Because he’s got a heart of gold (and maybe a pantry full of hot sauces). These sweet cards bring real joy and real impact.
Sweetest Dad around
This one’s dripping with goodness. It helps support beekeeping projects that provide families with honey to eat, sell and build stronger livelihoods. All wrapped up in a sweet pun Dad will absolutely milk for weeks.
Dad rating: Buzz-worthy brilliance for the man who’s equal parts sweet and sting.
Most valuable of all time
No puns, no frills — just a bold title for a dad who deserves it. This card helps Oxfam do more good where it’s needed most. Flexible, powerful, and downright legendary.
