Make A Wish
Want to go the “extra mile” for a local charity? Want to get more “mileage” out of your donations this year? (Sorry, couldn’t resist the puns) well you might consider donating Flier Miles to Make A Wish.
According to Andrew Asato, Oregon’s executive director, the main cost with most wishes is the airfare. BUT, you can donate frequent flier miles directly to the charity for use right away (he says Alaska Air miles are their favorite because they come with zero blackout dates and can be used immediately).
The cool part? People are already doing this. Even though cash donations are down thanks to the economy, they’ve received 8 million miles this year.
