This is the best website!!  It's featured in the December/January issue of Family Fun Magazine on page 139.  The motto of Markmakers is "The place for young people making a difference" and gives children a chance to use donate their money to a wide variety of causes (Fighting Hunger, Disease Prevention, Protect Animals, Peace and Justice, Environment, Kids in Need), such as....Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, where your child can give money to send another child with a serious illness to camp or Doctors Without Borders that provides emergency medical assistance to those affected by war, natural disasters, etc.  This website is extremely kid friendly and organized with inviting pictures and sound effects.  You can buy gift cards for a child to use and they can donate to one charity or split their money amongst many.
