I came across this on twitter today and thought how great it was to see social networking taking a turn towards charity programs. Aside from our  own amazing blogging charity at BloggersGive.com (raised $5K in products so far this year!), there are so many others reaching out to do the same thing.
I personally know RomeoTheCat [...]
