I came across a great cause that, coincidentally, is called NEST! Their website describes their mission as follows:
Nest is a nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the lives of women in developing countries. The mission of Nest is to support women artists and artisans in the developing world by helping them create sustainable entrepreneurial businesses. To do this, Nest provides micro-credit loans to be used for the purchase of the supplies and materials necessary to begin and/or maintain art or craft-based businesses.

I love this idea! It incorporates so many things I love. They have some great things for sale that you can buy to help support the cause:
Silvergate Earrings by Bellastyle
Umbrella Print by Dallas Shaw
Salsa bowls by Maria Belen de la Cruz
Tangerine Messenger by Henry Road
Check it out when you have a minute, and keep NEST in mind for your gift shopping!
