This year our shoppers have discovered how easy and convenient it is to do all their Mothers Day and Fathers Day shopping through iGive.com and give to their favorite cause at the same time," notes Rob Grosshandler, iGive.com founder.

California Siamese Rescue (www.siameserescue.org) has received over $800 through iGive.com. I bought my aunts favorite perfume at FragranceNet, my sister a massager at Sharper Image and my mother-in-law flowers at 1-800-Flowers" said Mary Ann Martin, CASRs Director. I didnt even have to pay for shipping. Im expecting at least another $20 check from iGive next month based on my Mothers Day purchases, alone."

iGive has found that involved shoppers are savvy shoppers. Grosshandler added, Im constantly amazed at how our members stay current with the best prices and bargains. Were always adding daily specials and cool new offers to our site, and our members clamor for more."

In addition to specials and deals, involved shoppers keep current on how their cause is doing at iGive.com. Ms. Martin said I especially like that we can track everything there is to know about the money our supporters earn for us via iGive. iGives online reports even include the check numbers of all the checks sent to us. As a volunteer driven organization, having somebody provide those kinds of details is key to our success with iGive. And as a shopper, I like being able to trace where my money goes!"
