Who doesn’t like a Dragonfly Robot? There’s even a near-quiet version. Sci-Fi comes true.

How do create fair-wage jobs for moms in Haiti and empower them to provide for their families – baby blankets!

Join the amazing community at The Forge, an amazing creative art space in LA. Help them build a recording studio and continue to host inspiring, creative events!

Raising money for government transparency sounds like something I can get behind. Oh yeah – and it involves a demolition derby! Yahoo!

This team is raising money to travel to India and Bangladesh to capture and share the stories of the first female surfers in the regions.  Support this project and get a sweet deck of playing cards featuring images taken from the trip!

This campaign embodies creativity & passion in a visually unique story line.

Sandy/Customer Happiness

Switcheroo

I love photographer Hana Pesut’s quaint idea! Hana’s photographed couples in swapped outfits from all over the world (Spain, Japan, France, Austria, Mexico, Canada & US) and is raising money to publish a photobook of her favorites.

A great campaign that brings love and funds from the West to the East Coast for Sandy relief!
