Meaningful gifts from World Vision
With six kids in public school - including four with special needs - the list of teachers, assistants, principals, coaches, specialists, therapists, and bus drivers I want to remember in a special way at Christmas can be overwhelming. Can you imagine the line up of little gift bags? I have done it in the past, but always seem to forget someone. And this year - with six kids in five schools and three buses, I've decided to go for something more meaningful that we can all share in.
Through World Vision's Christmas Catalog, I ordered a goat for a family who needs milk and cheese.
World Vision is a great alternative for gift-giving. Especially for the person who has everything!
And you can download and print out cards to give to those you are gifting in this way. Hope you all enjoy this too!

Another great giving opportunity that I heard about from my daughter is http://www.networkforgood.org/
Network for Good :: Home
And there is another site where you can give loans to people in third world countries to help them establish or grow their businesses.

Just a couple of thoughts.
