UptownLiz.com - Where Shopping Gives Back

Uptown Liz was founded to promote products from companies whose proceeds directly give back to charitable organizations. Through their online database, you can search by cause or product, with the knowledge that every time you link to a company and make a purchase, you are making a difference. Their mission is to build a bridge between compassionate consumers and concerned companies in order to improve the world around us. They like to call it "retail philanthropy" - the opportunity to purchase quality products that benefit worthwhile causes. So go ahead and click, because there is no buyer's remorse here. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to hear about new products, featured companies and their causes.

 
  In their own words  

“Uptown Liz was created in the memory of the late Elizabeth Ann Overturf, who died at the age of 28 years old on February 1, 2006 from a long and painful battle with breast cancer.”

  Why it might be a killer  

Uptown Liz is the only known website that offers a database to shop by charitable cause or product category; every time you shop, money is going towards a charitable cause. It also gained national press attention within a few weeks of its inception, and is using the legacy of Liz to save lives by bringing awareness about cancer in young people, early detection and advocacy with patients’ doctors.

  Some questions  

Will people choose this site to shop having so many other even more popular?
