Make a difference with the money you spend on gifts for others! Here is a list of websites through which you can buy gifts for others and give money to a good cause at the same time. Please feel free to contribute if you know any other good sites I may be leaving out!
This is a site I really love because there are many different causes to which you can send the proceeds of your purchase. If the person your giving your gift to feels passionate about reading or animals then the necklace you're buying for her can help buy books or animal food. The jewelry isn't that expensive and it really is good quality, I have a ring that I got from this site that I wear everyday!

If you know some one who is passionate about funding the fight against HIV/AIDS, this is a great site! There are a lot of really fun pieces of jewelry that look great on guys and girls. I especially like the jelly bracelets because they are affordable and very versatile!

For animal lovers, this is a wonderful resource. If you're stumped on what to get them, sponsor a manatee! Who doesn't love manatees? There are also a lot of little gifts on this site that would be cute stocking stuffers for brothers or sisters.

This is a wonderful blanket that is a great holiday gift. Part of the proceeds from it benefit and organization called Project Linus, an organization that donates blankets to children who need them.

Lastly, I recommend donating money in someones name to Heifer International. You could send chicks or a share of another animal to people who can really use them (don't worry they are not eaten).
