Giving Back on Ebay!

*Sorry for the lack of updates, but I was out of town all weekend on a tubing trip in Canyon Lake, TX. It was fabulous!*

Last week I was on the hunt for a fabulous dress to wear to my 10 year reunion this weekend. Since I'm committed to recycling clothing, I was checking out ebay. Imagine my surprise when I found the perfect dress for $14.99:

I received it Monday and am in love with it!
The best part, though is that it was on a part of Ebay that I was not even familiar with! I am pretty ashamed of this, since I try to stay as updated as possible on charities, obviously. This division of Ebay is "Ebay Giving Works". As proclaimed on the site:

"How each of us can make a difference for all of us. Together, we have the power to create an incredible amount of GOOD in the world-all it takes is buying or selling an item on eBay, or making an online gift through PayPal. Every activity you do with eBay Giving Works benefits a certified nonprofit organization of your choosing. Over $150M has been raised for charitable causes on eBay – so go ahead, what are you waiting for?"

My dress, for example, donated 25% to the Christmas Wish Program, Inc. for children. It's fabulous! I felt so wonderful after buying this dress; I saved money, but helped homeless children at the same time. How cool is that?

Please, go to www.ebaygivingworks.com/ today and get what you need at a discount price while helping a worthy cause in the process!
