Bringing Wishes to Life

Charities involved in the program can choose from the thousands of wholesale products DollarDays offers and place them in their wish lists, specifying the amount needed. For example, a shelter for the homeless might list health- and beauty-care items, socks, and underwear on its wish list. The organization then can put links on its Web site that lead directly to its DollarDays wish list. Each item on the wish list includes a thumbnail photograph. When visitors to the site make a purchase for the organization, DollarDays sends the organization an e-mail notification of the purchase and ships the items.
