This year we have asked various family where we could contribute in lieu of 'stuff' gifts in this year of struggle for so many. We also asked that the 'where' be the result of a family conversation. Here is one reply:
"The boys have a favorite charity but don't know if it fits the bill. They have a second local charity as well.
Their first choice is found at http://www.kiva.org/lend. You probably know this one already -- kiva gives microloans for people to start mostly subsistence farms and businesses to support their families. Is this close to a child supporting charity -- or would you like the Seattle one the boys know and like?
They are really liking doing the research and talking out options. it's really cute.
Love and miss you."
More than cute! Love!
