These are the organizations we have selected to receive a portion of our sale profits for one calendar year. We hope you'll love to support them as well. Each item sold donates a few dollars back to these beneficiaries. We would love to hear from you, and hear your stories, and suggestions on what great organizations you'd like to see us support.
