The gift of giving
If you would like to spread some joy, here are some great ideas for charitable giving, from $3 to $39,000, courtesy of Fast Company.
"$3 for a student workbook in Darfur (Catholic Relief Services, crs.org)
$12 for 20 pounds of multipurpose soap (Oxfam, oxfamamerica.org)
$20 for supplies for a disaster/rescue mobile unit for needy animals (ASPCA, aspca.org)
$25 for a "No Mo' Chemo" Party to celebrate completion of one young patient's chemotherapy (St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, stjude.org)"
Personally, I support some local charities, including Habitat for Humanity and Food Bank of the Rockies.
