This site is amazing! I've never heard of such a thing... I've heard of sending "less than $1 per day to feed a hungry child" but this is awesome -- buying chickens for poor families, which gives them eggs year round?! Buying them a cow? Even a fish farm?

Just thought I'd pass the site along... you can make a purchase in someone else's name, and they receive a card saying "a poor family in XXX will eat for the next year thanks to your purchase of XXX" or something along those lines.

Thats such an awesome idea! I really like the idea of shares, where if you can't afford to give a big ticket item like a cow or fish farm you can at least help contribute to it.
