COOL SITES WE RECOMMEND
********************************
TooCoolKids.com has to be the greatest site that I've seen recently. This site is run by two children ages 7 & 8. All items are handmade and 100% of the profits are sent to charities. The site is US-centric and all items are of a patriotic nature.

Virtual Lemonade Stand is another keeper. This site lists companies that donate 25% or more of their profits to charities.
