This is too good to hold until the next time I see you.

A new nonprofit website, www.ChangingThePresent.org, brings the power of the internet to change the face of gift-giving and charitable giving.

Finally, we can choose exactly what we want to accomplish. For just a few dollars, we can protect an acre of the rainforest, make a blind person see, or provide a child with a first book. We can even teach a woman to fish.

With thousands of rewarding opportunities from hundreds of leading nonprofits, the site is staggering in its breadth and impact.

These donation opportunities also make great gifts. After all, who really needs another engraved paper weight? Profile pages, wish lists and registries let us share our passions and interests with others, while greeting cards announce donations made in a friend's name.

And remember: you heard it here, first.
