Christmas is coming

Yep, this is not a joke post. Christmas is coming.

I know that this kind of thing takes time to sort out, but it does seem to be getting earlier each year. This time, though, there is good reason.

A friend of mine has a business designing and printing Corporate Christmas Cards, either with a unique cartoon design or with a more traditional picture on.

The USP here is that he gives 15% to the charity of your choice. Yes, your choice, not his or anyone else's you might care to mention. Now, that's great.

I see it as taking something back from the corporate moneymakers out there and passing it to a worthy cause. Think of him as a modern day Robin Hood. But, without a band of merry men. And no Maid Marion. And he doesn't live in a forest.

Okay, I admit, the Robin Hood analogy was poor.

Still, if you're in the market for Corporate Christmas Cards and would like to see 15% of your spend handed over to a charity of your choice, go visit his site here.
