Buy a Costume and help a child in Uganda, too

The site Costumestudio.com is donating costume profits to help children in war ravaged Uganda. They have costumes for pets, kids, adults. Here is what their site says:

About us

CostumeStudio is a website carrying one of the worlds largest selections of all occasion costumes and other Halloween related items. We are a company who supports children around the world in need. This Halloween we have teamed up with Invisible Children and will be donating 100% the profits from your purchases to help children in the war-torn region of Uganda. In a sense, we are giving away Halloween.

It is estimated that five billion dollars will be spent on costumes this Halloween. Five billion dollars would feed over a hundred million starving children for an entire year. We are hoping to remove the barrier of entry to doing good by creating opprotunities that integrate into people's lives. We are enabling people to incorporate good into people's everyday lives. On every product page is the exact donation amount you will be giving to help children in the war-torn region of Uganda.

Many musicians and celebrities are also teaming up with the endeavor to support their favorite causes and MySpace has pledged their support in spreading the word through the largest social network in the world.

Thank you for being a part of this and giving these children hope.

And yes, I bought my dog a costume. She will be a flower. I bought a friend's Yorkie a costume too -- she will be a bee. This is such a neat way to help and have fun too...buy a costume for yourself or as a gift!
