Making Change for Katrina

Coinstar was on the CBS Early Show today. Too bad I didn't have any warning or I would have saved it on the Tivo. The point of the spot was to let people know about MakingChangeForKatrina.org. You can donate your change to help Katrina victims at a lot of Coinstar machines. Just go to the locator to find a machine near you.

There are many other charities that can accept donations from a Coinstar machine. The locator allows you to narrow your search to a specific charity. You can also find Coinstar machines in the UK or Canada, however at this time I don't see any charity options for the machines in Canada.
