TisBest.org

In search of a last minute, eco-friendly, or philanthropic gift? Check out TisBest.org where you can purchase a charitable gift certificate that the recipient can donate to an organization of her choice.

According to an article on MSNBC...
"The company sold 15,000 charity gift cards last year and expects to more than double that this year. The cards can be loaded with any amount of money (to the penny) between $10 and $5,000. Customers can print the card on their computer, have it sent by e-mail or physically delivered. For standard shipping there is no charge."
The money can be donated to a number of organizations from PETA to Big Brothers Big Sisters to Environmental Defense Fund to the Alzheimer's Association.

Now you don't have to shop at 7-11 for last minute gifts (anybody else remember that episode of Family Ties?).

Kellie, I saw this book last night at Joseph-Beth Booksellers and thought of you.
