Today, I bought a goat…and books & school supplies for kids.

I realized that this year, my budget was too tight to do my usual special design holiday cards with attendant gift items for family, friends and associates.
Instead, I decided to take my money and put it to better use. Thus the goat & stuff for the kids. I figured that my measly $111 would go further by donating to Oxfam, than in buying cards, gifts and paying for postage.
In celebration of the giving season, I'd like to extend a challenge to my readers: if you donate a minimum of $25 to one of my favorite charities (listed below), I'll send a copy of one of my books to you (or to your local library for their collection), autographed appropriately.
Simply email me a copy of your donation receipt (or a photo of it), the snail mail address where I should send the book, and how it should be inscribed. It's that easy!

Please feel free to let other folks know!
