Holiday Special! Buy One, Give Some!




'Tis the season for sharing & giving. Now through Dec. 23, you can purchase a copy of Pennies a Day, the heartwarming story of Nobel Prize winner Muhammed Yunus and the microlending movement that has lifted many from poverty, for the special price of just $5.00! This documentary comes from a larger piece shown on public television.

izzit.org will donate 20% ($1.00 per copy purchased) to Heifer International, an organization that helps families around the world feed themselves and rise from poverty through entrepreneurship and animal husbandry.

To purchase a copy for yourself, or someone else as a gift, and help izzit.org help others, go here: http://www.izzit.org/store/product_info.php?products_id=7


As an additional holiday bonus, each person who picks a free DVD, or who purchases a DVD in the month of December will be entered to win a Roku – digital streaming device.
