Christmas is the time of year when most of us spend the most money during the year. First watch the video about Advent Conspiracy.
This year consider changing a few of the gifts you purchase in order to have your money work for those in need also.
Gobena Coffee: Named after the 70 year old man who took care of their daughter, Gobena sells organic and fair trade coffee. 100% of their profits go to children in Ziway Ethiopia.
Orphaned NO More, 3,000 Bracelets: The name of this comes from how many bracelets it would take to bring their child home. Since this family brought Sophia home the baton has been passed. I can personally attest that these bracelets are beautiful as my sister-in-law gifted me one last year!
One Twenty Seven: Adorable hair bows. 100% of the proceeds to go Lifesong for Orphans. Again helping in Ziway Ethiopia.
TOMS: TOMS one for one campaign gives shoes to children in need. For each pair you buy, one pair is donated.
World Vision: The World Vision catalog provides you with items that you can give to others: animals, clean water, medical care. These gifts can be for US children or Orphans and Widows. Give this gift in honor of someone.

Another great organization is forgottensong. I've met the couple who had the vision for and began pursuing this ministry, bringing education and opportunity to widows and orphans in war-torn countries - beginning with Iraq. They have neat t-shirts (sadly, not pictured on the website) for a gift of $15+.
