Yeah, I know that we should give to charity year round, but I tend to put it off until the holidays. Anyway, one of my favorite charities is Child's Play. Buy video games for sick kids at children's hospitals around the country.

Also, if you followed the story of James Kim and his family, they are accepting donations here. It sounds like the ( Read more... )
