Shopping for a Cause, Buying with Purpose

Someone showed me how to add a 'widget' (at least I think that is the techie name) to my blog. This gives a look at where in the country/world people are tuning into the blog from. Most of my visitors are from Iowa, Minnesota and North Dakota (because that is where the bulk of my 'peeps' live). The word has been spreading, and lately... I've noticed kind of a boom. All of these new visitors were being directed from a blog I'd never heard of. Well, I headed on over to check it out. I was amazed at what I saw. With the help of a friend and her sister-in-law, the 'DomesticatedDiva' had compiled a list of awesome links and products where the proceeds would go to help out with the Orphan Crisis, namely--supporting families with their adoption expenses. What an awesome idea, and just in time for Christmas shopping (one of my personal favorite past-times). I thought the least I could do (since our funky, green t-shirt was included on the list) was to pass along the list. Admittedly, I just copied a pasted below. Enjoy!!!


...with the help of her SUPER Sister-in-law, has created CHRISTMAS SHOPPING AT YOUR FINGERTIPS!!! Seriously! HONESTLY - No need to leave your office, room, den, kitchen, bedroom, phone... THIS IS where IT'S AT!!!  :)  I would get started now... or PASS ON THIS INCREDIBLE 'IDEA' this YEAR... To make your GIFT GIVING - GIVE back!!! ...You are a HAPPY consumer and your recipient will FEEL Sincerely BLESSED; That WHAT you purchased went towards an ORGANIZATION, ADOPTION, MINISTRY or an OUTREACH to HELP those in NEED!!

We may not all be pursing adoption personally -  but... GOD has TOLD all of us to CARE for the widows and the orphans and the POOR and the NEEDY!! 

James 1:27
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.


Proverbs 14:31
He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.

 Isaiah 1:17
Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.

Haha - sorry to catch you off guard! I tried to inform as many people as possible, but people kept adding to my list and I figured it was all for a good cause! Thank you for sharing =) I now have added a widget where people can add their own link. So many of the links were outdated that I figured it was time. If you know anyone fundraising, feel free to share my site with them so they can sign up =)
