For the month of March, I will be donating all shipping costs from orders in my shop directly to the Red Cross, in hopes of sending a little bit of relief to Haiti and now Chile.  Two such devastating events in such a short amount of time is just heartbreaking, and need for help and aid can't be higher.  The news of the earthquake in Chile—a country where my brother spent two years as an LDS missionary, so I feel a special tie there—has really moved me to want to help, in whatever little way I can.  I worry, too, that with all the donations that have been poured into Haitian Relief, that people are going to be reacting more slowly to this second, even more terrible disaster.

I decided then, to donate the shipping costs from purchases in my shop straight to the Red Cross.  This is more than 10% cost in most places, as books are heavier and require more shipping than many items, but it's something I feel like I have to do—and I'm happy to!
