Newman’s Own  and the Hole in the Wall Camps are worth a mention in the “newsworthy charities” category for several reasons. The company is always coming up with new products, Paul Newman is a total class act – AND – the money goes to charity. Newman’s products are also delicious–I know–I buy them! Check out the site for information on the camps–they provide a fun experience for kids with serious illnesses; free of charge. There are even camps located in places such as Ireland, Florida and France.

To date, the Newman’s Own brand has raised over $200 million dollars for charity. Not bad for something that started out as a whim….if you don’t know the story, it is worth a look.

There are a lot of stories here…………………..
