This short altruistic detour makes every purchase count, turning everyday shopping into everyday giving.

Corine Couwenberg, President and Founder of nonprofitshoppingmall.com says "creating the People Who Care feature has allowed us to highlight a variety of nonprofits, spread their message by adding a personal touch and provide our online shoppers with an opportunity to make socially conscious retail decisions at the same time. We are pleased with our progress to date and will continue to spotlight new organizations and the People Who Care about them on a monthly basis."

She further notes, "With breast cancer touching the lives of so many friends, families, communities and women worldwide, it's fitting that we come full circle and feature the good work and goals of Susan G. Komen for The Cure again this October by making it our default beneficiary throughout the month."
