If I had 100 dollars.

This blog we are doing ethical gifting. I believe this is a very important cause because there are millions and millions of people that don't have food , clean water or even a home to sleep in. this usually takes place in "developing countries " this week we are pretending the we each have $100 and can spend it at either Oxfam, the salvation army, plan Canada,and world vision.I decided to use Oxfam because it has good prices and lots of options .

gift one :  we chose a chicken for $15 so that they can eat the chickens eggs
gift two: mosquito net for $20 to keep the family's safe from mosquito's and from getting deadly diseases 
gift three: tools for $39 for planting harvesting and constructing sturdier homes
gift four: safe water for $22 so they don't get sick from dirty water
