How to seriously think about how I can incorporate philanthropy into the holiday party I'm helping to plan & encourage others to do the same with their holiday parties
It made me
feel warm and fuzzy 
"We ended-up collecting books and/or donations for Reading is Fundamental as a set part of entry to the holiday party."
How I did it: Ppl either had to bring a book or an extra 5 dollars as a part of admission. Really easy, everyone loved it, and helped out a great cause.
www.rif.org for more info or to donate online.
