This blog is about my family, the deals that I find, product reviews and giveaways and whatever else should happen to appear to me as a blessing.

Project GiveBack.org
At Christmas time it seems we all think more about "giving". Be it to the Red Kettles that are outside every store or donating a toy to a less fortunate kid. As a couponer, or dealseeker I often try to get extra of the freebies to donate to foodbanks. But honestly there are charities out there that need us more then just during the holiday season.
GiveBack.org can definately help out for those looking to donate throughout the year. It is pretty simple actually. Go here and sign up for a new account. You will automatically be given $5.00 in your account. You can use this to donate to one of the charities that is near and dear to you. They have made it extremely simple to donate the money. You simply add the charity to your foundation and then you can distribute the money amongst the different charities in your foundation. The hardest part I had was not having enough money to give to all the charities that I wanted to. However, you can add funds to your foundation or you can shop to earn money for your foundation. You can shop over 400 retail shops and earn up to 15% back.
Signing up for GiveBack.org is completely free, there is no cost to you or the charities. All of the charities must be registered with the IRS and you can easily manage your donations through one account and receive one tax receipt at the end of the year.
What are you waiting for....go sign up and start helping out a charity!
