A new feature for the new year

As I’ve struck out to build a business, I’ve cherished my desire to make a difference while making a living. My steps have been small, and I’m so excited to add a new dimension to the journey: Download and donate.

Download and donate (D&d) is an opportunity for you to download a little something from me at a low price (usually $1.00). I then turn around and donate part of the proceeds (usually at least 50%) to causes and organizations bent on doing good in the world.

D&d is a motivation for me to create and explore when I have space between traditional clients. Just as important, it’s an insistence that our blessings are best shared, and that we are not impoverished by generosity.

Caribou thank you note paper

In the spirit of the holiday season, today’s D&d is caribou thank you note paper for $1.00 with $0.50 of every download going to Heifer International. Print the note paper on plain copy paper, stylish resume paper, or whatever you fancy, set to 1/4″ margins, and then cut it in half. Each page you print will yield two sheets of note paper that will fit in personal size envelopes (no. 6-3/4 in). In the future, I hope to make it so that the download will begin upon completion of your PayPal transaction. For now, I’ll be emailing you the file. Click the links or images to order.

A portion of the funds generated from downloading the product on this page go to Joy, and she donates the remainder ($0.50 for every dollar received) of her own accord directly to Heifer International. If there is a PayPal fee, Joy absorbs it into the portion she takes, ensuring that Heifer International receives no less than $0.50 for every dollar received.

Thank you to my friends–and that’s you if you’re reading this–for all the encouragement and support as I’ve developed new designs and sought fresh directions in blogging and life.

Joys divided are increased.
