Want to give a gift that benefits a good cause? No, we're not talking about adopting a manatee. We're talking about Presents for a Purpose, a company started by Alayna Kassan and Cynthia Warner, two courageous chicks who both survived Hodgkins Disease, then decided to do what they could to give back to the cancer community.

And, boy, do they give back! Twenty-five percent of the proceeds from the sales of their products are used to fund the Lymphoma Research Foundation or other charitable organizations. Besides these crystal-embellished watches ($54.50 each), the company carries bath robes, vanity sets--even baby gear. Just visit presentsforpurpose.com and get into the holiday spirit knowing your present pulls double duty by not only touching someone you know, but also touching someone you don't.
