Gifts that Give Back 2013

‘Twas  the night before Black Friday,
 and all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
just the click of my mouse.

Fighting traffic and crowds
to help Santa fill his sack?
Keep calm and surf the web
for these gifts that give back.

For the child who's wise and cute,
Keep their head warm and cozy
with a hat that's a hoot!

For that man you've loved for years,
This awesome gift from Sevenly 
will be music to his ears.

That special lady will really be floored
when she opens her watch
that feeds a hundred from Michael Kors.

Speaking of timepieces, here's one more.
A unisex watch that fights AIDS
courtesy of Kenneth Cole, J'adore. 

For the reader who prefers pages to Nooks,
Buy a book and they'll donate one,
Over at Better World Books.

Stocking stuffers? I have the answer,
From lotion that helps feed kids 
to jewelry that fights cancer.

What about me? What did I get?
A cool new tee-shirt
that gives back a net.

To complete the perfect holiday look,
Check out OPI's bright shade for nails
that helps victims of Sandy Hook.

And please don't forget the man in red himself.
Prepare these cookies from St. Jude 
For him and his elf. 

Remember the best gift of all
is when you help others thrive .
So start a Crowdrise fundraiser
or stop in at a blood drive

Avoiding the madness, no mall in sight?
Spreading joy with each purchase, 
You're doing Peace on Earth right.
