While you can transfer points from one person to another, the cost of doing so is quite high. The rate is 1% of the number of points transferred (minimum 2000 points, and then 500 point increments) in dollars. So 2000 points will cost $20 to transfer.
As an example,, a $35 travel fund credit can be converted to 2730 points. Only 2500 of those points can be transferred to another person. Cost will be $25. The other 230 cannot be transferred since they must be transferred in lots of 500. After the transfer, your credit value has effectively been reduced to $10. Less, if you take into account the 230 points you can't use.
Since you can add additional cash to travel funds to buy a ticket, but can't do that with points, you may be better off keeping the travel funds - if there's any chance at all that any/all of you will be flying in the next 2 years.
