The National Retail Federation estimates that online sales will grow 6 to 8 percent this holiday season. That translates into billions of dollars in consumer spending that can empower philanthropy and social good. By shopping at any of the 27 online stores listed below, conscious consumers can channel some of their spending power into the nonprofit sector. Or, if you prefer to donate to a nonprofit in the name of a friend, colleague, or loved one, you can purchase a tribute holiday gift. Either way, give back this holiday season and shop for good.

Olympic National Park Poster Just Released!

The latest poster to be released by The National Park Poster Project is for Olympic National Park and features the park’s rain forest, massive trees and lush vegetation. With nearly one million acres, Olympic National Park encompasses several distinctly different ecosystems and protects a rich mosaic of natural and cultural history. Untamed rivers flow from glacier-capped peaks through valleys of old-growth forests, waves crash against a shoreline rich with life, and only trails traverse the vast interior of this internationally recognized wilderness.

And now you can enjoy Olympic National Park every day with this classic WPA-style poster — available exclusively to Kickstarter backers!

I recently connected with the folks at The Park Catalog, a company that provides outdoor furnishings and amenities for a wide range of venues — from America’s majestic National Parks to the park down the street — including park benches, picnic tables, bike racks and much more. The White House, a national historic site, is even one of their customers! You can find out more about them here: http://www.theparkcatalog.com

The Park Catalog recently compiled this Top 20 List of the most popular US parks. Every year about 275 million visitors travel to more than 400 national park locations in the United States. Since 1916, the National Park Service and its 20,000 employees have maintained hundreds of parks, monuments, battlefields, historic sites, lakeshores, seashores, scenic rivers, trails and more! If there are a few national parks you haven’t visited, be sure to put them on your list for future vacations. They are all truly magnificent and unique.

The Park Catalog staff are big advocates of visiting parks, traveling and the great outdoors. They regularly hang out in parks on weekends and vacation in our national parks. And, they share their park experiences in their monthly newsletter that covers a wide variety of different park issues – http://blog.theparkcatalog.com/

Basically, they love parks and advocate spending more time in them. If you’re involved with any sort of park at any level, this could be a great resource for you! Check them out here: http://www.theparkcatalog.com
