sleeping baby productions' charitable initiative

As we are going to buy a house this year, and my income will no longer be disposable, I will no longer be making a regular percentage donation each month. I really hate to do that, but housing in our area is definitely not cheap! Hopefully, once our housing situation is more settled, I will be able to go back to making a monthly donation from my business income.

From October 2005 through December 2007, 10% of my monthly sales each month were given to charity. The percentage donated was based on the actual dollar cost of the slings, so a $40 sling generated a $4 donation. Occasionally world circumstances -- like the 2005 earthquake in Kashmir -- compelled me to donate more than that 10%, but that was the very minimum.

I hope that you have looked or will look at your financial situation and consider charitable giving as well -- we have so much in the developed world that it can be easy to forget how little others have.
