Do Something Different This Christmas

Pressbox (Press Release) -
Just how powerful is the Internet? Is it no more than an aid for the all ready well off consumer or can it be used to mobilise help for the poor in developing countries?
Is it possible to sell one million alternative charitable gifts by Christmas through the Internet?
I have set the challenge by launching a website called onemilliongifts.com.
Onemilliongifts.com gets you access to Worldvision's alternative gift catalogue where you can buy an alternative gift (e.g. a herd of goats) for your friends, family and work colleagues. You can pay in UK pounds or Euros safely and securely online by debit or credit card no matter where you are in the world.
Not only by buying an alternative charitable gift will you bring a smile to your nearest and dearest but you will also be helping the millions of people in the developing world that desperately need aid.
How to get involved? Simple. Buy an alternative gift and tell everyone you know about the site.
