Last post I introduced you to CauseDepot, a website dedicated to "bringing global awareness to everyday living." Today, as I was drinking my morning coffee I was thinking about how (as soon as my first shipment of Firecracker Espresso Blend arrives) my daily ritual could start making just a bit of difference for good in the world. The folks at Just Coffee are a coop that works in partnership with people like the National Presbyterian Church of Mexico to address some of the root causes of migration to the United States from the Mexican side. 
But CauseDepot is more than just an online store. Revs. Jim and Pati Toole mean it to also be an ongoing conversation about a changing world and the impact that can be made through everyday decisions.
From the CAUSEdepot website:
What if we as consumers started to buy everyday products through the internet from non-profit organizations or cause-related enterprises that sell products to sustain their causes? We would actually start recycling our consumer power!
This is what we are calling the CAUSEdepot.The CAUSEdepot was created by ordained pastors, Jim and Pati Toole. Our family is a fairly normal family of four. However, like many we feel an urgency to be more active in global poverty issues. We have decided to start the CAUSEdepot. It is an e-retail store, conversation, and portal to innovative ideas. It is a small way for us to enter into innovation surrounding global issues. Our desire is to showcase stories and encourage ideas of innovation and enterprise that can benefit cause-related organizations. Sixty percent of our profit will go back to other effective organizations.
