Give others donations to their favorite charities! Redefine Christmas is neither commercial venture, nor money-maker. It's simply a charitable idea, shared by many, that our holiday gift giving could be more meaningful and do more good. In addition to the gifts we enjoy shopping for and giving, we're often compelled to give gifts that aren't so meaningful. Imagine if we replaced those gifts by giving others donations to their favorite charities. And we just request that others do the same for us. Featuring: Tucker Albrezzi, Sarah Carter (Dirty Sexy Money, Shark), Kestrin Pantera (Rita Rocks, Alter Eco, Weezer), Carly Craig (Role Models), Pat Pedraja, Joy Bryant (Antwone Fisher, Virtuality), Jack Healey, Sean Carasso, Ken Jeong (Role Models, Knocked Up), Lukas Haas (Musician, Entourage), Caitlin Coble, Ana-Maria Munoz and Heather Bright (TOMS shoes), Brian White (Fighting, Twelve Rounds), Noah Segan (Brick, Deadgirl), Nzinga Blake (The Causecast, Current TV), Marcus Price and Chad Ackerman (Invisible Children)

Americans typically spend $470 billion a year on holiday gifts. Just 1/3 of that would provide clean drinking water for every man, woman and child on the planet. Lets break the stereotype. This year we challenge you to give in a new way. Face it, we’re in a recession and people need change. It’s simple. Causecast’s 12 Days of Giving campaign brings together multiple nonprofit organizations, ambassadors, activists, leaders and members of the entertainment world to get the message out loud and clear: "We don’t need another scarf or sweater. We need change." Buy one less present and donate one more dollar in a friend’s name to a charity of their choice. Or better yet, buy a gift for them that directly benefits the cause and still makes your friend or family member happy. It’s that easy. We can change the world one gift at a time. We don't need five more diamond rings, a turtle dove, or even another cheesy pop infused annoying commercial…unless that commercial has a different message. along with non-profit and human rights leaders.
