Do you have an old fur coat in your closet? Is your grandmother's mink stole stored in the attic? Many of us have fur apparel that we no longer want or that was left to us by a family member. Some aren't comfortable selling it or giving it to charity, because they feel people should not wear animal fur. And storing, cleaning, and remodeling old fur coats are highly profitable services for furriers and helps keep them in the fur business. So what should people do with it? Give it back to the animals. If you would like to see that old fur put to a good use, donate it to The Humane Society of the United States' Coats for Cubs program. The fur will aid and comfort wildlife. Where Do the Furs Go? All of the furs received by The HSUS are sent to wildlife rehabilitators, who use the furs to warm and comfort orphaned and injured wildlife. More than 200 rehabilitators from across the United States and Canada now participate in the program. How Do the Furs Help Wildlife? The furs are cut into an... See less

So you have heard the term before, but do you really know what a nonprofit organization is? There are legal definitions, including 26 types of nonprofits recognized by the IRS, and there are common perceptions of what people mean when they refer to an organization as nonprofit. Let's start with perceptions. For this site at About.com, a nonprofit is a tax-exempt organization that serves the public interest. In general, the purpose of this type of organization must be charitable, educational, scientific, religious or literary. This is a common and broad definition that fits the type of information likely to be found at this site. The public expects to be able to make donations to these organizations and deduct these donations from their federal taxes. Legally, a nonprofit organization is one that does not declare a profit and instead utilizes all revenue available after normal operating expenses in service to the public interest. See less

Highlights: CEOs of major hospitals can commonly earn salaries and bonuses of $500,000 to over $1,000,000.

Back when we started Real Goods nearly 30 years ago in 1978 and sold the world's first photovoltaic solar panel at retail, we never dreamed that solar would one day become mainstream, with the promise of millions of rooftops generating their own solar energy all over the world. That day has arrived and we're heartened to have solarized over 60,000 homes over the years, making a small contribution toward mitigating global warming and providing independence from fossil fuels for an age where oil is becoming increasingly expensive and scarce. Since the early days we've developed and provided products for what we call "Solar Living." It's a concept that encompasses 'sustainability,' 'regeneration,' 'green,' 'earth friendly,' and eco products' and all things environmental and energy smart. We see Solar Living as the complete lifestyle from energy efficient lighting and water purification all the way to living competely off the utility grid with solar energy in a strawbale home. All energy:... See less
