Green, Ethical and Eco-friendly Weddings

Check out Sandy Stonesifer’s I Do Good on Slate.com - how to turn your wedding into a charity fundraiser. There are some great ideas here, like

• have two registries (one for yourself and one for a charity)
• request donations in lieu of gifts
• send leftovers to a local shelter
• make donations in lieu of wedding favours.

Here are some of the charities listed in the article that can help you out with wedding-related fundraising:

• IDoFoundation.org
• JustGive.org
• Heifer International
• World Vision Canada 

There is a lot of power when groups of people come together, like for a wedding. Harness that power, and do some good for the world!
