iGive lets you shop at more than 700 brand-name stores and at the same time have up to 26 percent of each purchase donated to the cause of your choice. The cool part is that you can select from the more than 42,000 causes listed on the site, or get yours added. Any cause in the U.S. or Canada qualifies, and 501(c)3 nonprofit status is not required.

The stores are biggies you've heard of: eBay, Lands' End, Staples, JCPenney, Barnes & Noble, Overstock.com, drugstore.com, Office Depot, QVC, Expedia, Home Depot, HSN, Best Buy, Drs. Foster & Smith, Gap, Buy.com and Nordstrom, just to name a few.

Just select your cause from the home page and register with the site. No cost to you -- and iGive states that you often will save money through exclusive coupon codes and deals gathered just for members.
