Holiday Donation Winner

Thank you all for entering my holiday giveaway. It was inspiring to read the list of everyone's favorite charities, and I promise to donate to every single one of them when I become a millionaire. But for now, the winner is...

and

I used random.org to choose a winner fairly, but I must admit that Najeema is one my favorite Boston ladies, and I couldn't be happier with the charity she chose. As a haven for poor and homeless women since 1974, Rosie's Place provides not only food and shelter, but also long-term assistance through advocacy, education and affordable housing. Its mission is "to help women maintain their dignity, seek opportunity and find security in their lives."

If you have a bit of money to spare this holiday season, be sure to check out the comments on the original post to learn about some very worthwhile causes.
