This year's WzW communal gifts go to...
Regenerative Leadership Institute
http://www.indiegogo.com/online-permaculture
Permaculture is the extension of the art of biomimicry - a sustainable living and design science rooted in observation of nature; permaculture is to sustainability what math is to physics. Nature has long solved many of the environmental and social problems we're facing today, but we just have not been paying much attention.
The Regenerative Leadership Institute is seeking to film one of their in-person trainings and develop an inexpensive online permaculture design course, teaching principles of sustainable living and permaculture design at a fraction of the cost of in-person trainings. Even better, they'll be making a lot of the course content available completely free.

Looking for that perfect gift?... Kiva Cards ... How many gifts have the potential to change lives?
Finding gifts can be difficult, but Kiva Cards are an easy choice. Kiva Cards introduce your friends and family to Kiva, giving them the opportunity to choose borrowers to support. When their loans are repaid, they can use those funds again and again to make even more loans on Kiva. It's truly the gift that keeps on giving!
