Looking for a last minute gift....

Every Christmas, billions of dollars are spent on gifts for the people we love and those we feel like we should buy a present for. Often these gifts are things that the people really don't even want or need. We even will include a gift receipt because we know so many people will return what we bought. So what if what we purchased for people something that would benefit someone else. Here are a few ideas for last minute gifts:

Bead for Life : BeadforLife eradicates extreme poverty by creating bridges of understanding between impoverished Africans and concerned world citizens. Ugandan women turn colorful recycled paper into beautiful beads. Women in Northern Uganda gather shea nuts and press them into shea butter for cosmetics and soaps.

Vive Clothing :With enough negative forces in the world, why compartmentalize the positives? VIVE began with the belief that business can be done in a fashion that promotes positive change in people, transforming our communities and altering our world. At a certain age sharing is pounded into a persons head, and at a certain age he or she is allowed to forget it . . . at VIVE we have grasped hold of this concept by letting go: percentages of all proceeds will be given to help sustain non-profit organizations. Whether its creating, playing, or merely expressing yourself, everything we do can have just cause.

Water.org : When you treat your family and friends to a Water.org, CamelBak bottle, you'll also be giving a life-changing gift to someone in need.

• The bottles are a limited edition design, environmentally friendly and great holiday gifts.
• And 100% of the profits go directly to support nearly a billion people in the world who lack clean water.

Give just one bottle and you help a child get clean, safe water. Give more and you change even more lives - forever. The need has never been greater and you can make a real difference simply by shopping now.

World Vision Gift : Brighten the future for a child in need by buying them a gift: a goat, 2 chickens, ducks, medicine or even a soccer ball. Let someone know that you purchased this gift in their name.

Freeset Bags : Freeset exists specifically to provide freedom for women from the sex trade, women who were forced into prostitution by trafficking or poverty.

No Gathering

Reminder that there is no Gathering on December 22nd or the 29th. Have a great time celebrating Christmas.
