Blueprint magazine(a MSL offspring) published a list that I thought was worth sharing.
Of course, I won’t include all 100 ideas here, but check them out for yourself at
www.blueprintmag.com

Here’s my favorite top 10:

10. BOOKSFORAFRICA.COM - Give everything from storybooks to encyclopedias
9. SUITCASESFORKIDS.COM - Supply children in foster care with luggage
8. BOULDERRUNNING.COM - Ship shoes and sportswear to struggling athletes around the world
7.ECO-CELL.COM- Donations of cell phones +sales to benefit environmental charity.
6.YOUTHFORTECHNOLOGY.COM - Put scanners, computers and cameras in the hands of deserving, impoverished kids around the world.
5.NIKEREUSEASHOE.COM - Recycled footwear materials become sports and playground surfaces.
4.CHILDRENSCANCERASSOCIATION.COM- Donate air miles to terminally ill kids.
3.EXCESSACCESS.ORG - Match your household items with a local non-profit’s wish list.
2.UNITEFORSIGHT.ORG + GIVETHEGIFTOFSIGHT.COM - Send eyewear to men and women in underdeveloped countries.
1.EARTH911.ORG - Find local recycling and reuse programs for all kinds of household items.
