Since the holiday shopping season is bearing down upon us, I'd thought I'd mention iGive.com.
It's basically a front end for a bunch of (600+) online retailers that will donate a percentage of your purchase amount to the charity of your choice.
I've used it for a few years now, and it does work. It's free to sign up. They send out regular newsletters a few times a month, but other than that, it didn't increase my spam at all. They also keep track of how much was donated to your charity. It's pretty neat.
The Zappos post reminded me of it, since Zappos, Shoebuy, and several other shoe stores participate.
