Do we send a gift if unable to attend the graduation party?

 question; woman

Dear Polite One,

Isn't it customary to send a gift if you receive a graduation announcement? What about if we receive an invitation to a graduation party?  Do we send a gift if unable to attend the graduation party?

Haven't a Clue

Dear Haven't a Clue,

You are not obligated to send gifts for the announcement or invitation. If you are very close to the graduate and wish to give, you may.

Sincerely,

The Polite One
