Robin, one of the moderator's at our yahoo group (see photo on right) hipped me to this cool organization, and I felt inspired to share the info with you.
Anyone who spends any time shopping on line should know about iGive.com. Basically, any time you order something online from one of the participating stores, they give a percentage to the cause of your choice--any cause, and if it's not on their list, you can add it. It can be anything from the March of Dimes to a personal cause (the example in the link is someone's kids' dance school). And all you have to do to send the donation is go to the iGive site first and choose the store from there instead of going to it directly.The list of stores who participate is really long, and includes the Apple Store (including iTunes), LLBean, 1-800-Flowers, and Banana Republic, to name just a couple. (Amazon is not a participant, unfortunately, but B & N is). I found out about them when the Wild Animal Sanctuary joined a year or two ago.And you can have more than one cause. Here is the link for more info and to register:http://www.igive.com/welcome/
