The Good Stuff #3

First of all, a newsbrief I came across that definitely qualifies as "good stuff":

Earl Stafford, a Virginia businessman, has given $1 million to create "the People's Inaugural Project," bringing hundreds of poor and disadvantaged americans to Washington DC, where they will have front row seats for Obama's inauguration parade. Read more here. What motivates Mr. Stafford's efforts? This from the front page of his foundation's website:

"The Stafford Foundation is a faith-based non-profit organization founded on promoting the principles of Jesus Christ..."
Cool.

Next up, two of the many, many ways you can make Christmas gift-giving a truly lifegiving experience. First, Toms Shoes. The video will give you the basic idea, and the website will show you how to order.


What if Toms became the next Uggs??!! Think of all the feet that would protect!! YOU could make it happen...

And don't forget about the world's coolest wish-list, World Vision's annual Must-Have Gifts. What could be cooler than buying someone a chicken, or a llama, or medical training??!!

Feel free to comment and send along other "good stuff" you come across - funny how this stuff tends to crop up during the Christmas season. I wonder why...
