this year, adam and i are buying thoughtful gifts that are not only totally unique, but also that significantly support a charity. i'm not talking $1.00 here or there, but instead companies that are donating a minimum of 20% of their proceeds. most of the organizations are receiving 100% of the purchase price, which i feel is incredible. we're trying to put the reason back into the season, and have already inspired a few others to follow suit. if you'd like to do the same, please click on the links below and shop away. if you find more worthwhile companies, please list them in the comments. thanks :)

After our conversation earlier, I checked out some sites. I really like the idea and the products.
I found this:

I don't know how to do the links in the comments section...
What do you suggest for Hanukkah?
I need to know, because it's only like a week away.
Get a book and benefit Israel when you purchase "Testaments of Israel," a stunning photographic study of Israel as viewed through the lenses of 40 renowned Israeli and international photographers.
Jewish National Fund is offering the book for $45. This includes a limited edition of the book in a gift case as well as Time-Life photographer David Rubinger's CD-ROM "Portrait of Israel." Proceeds benefit the work of JNF.
Gift-givers can also donate money for trees in Israel in someone else's name. Trees are $18 each, and JNF is currently offering a "buy two, get one free" special. Visit www.jnf.org to order "Testaments of Israel"; visit the Web site or call (800) 542-8733 to purchase trees.
charitycharms.com is a cool one too
