At Webyshops.com we feel we should all give back to the world in which we live. However, figuring out the best way to do that is not easy. Since our customers and our talents help us make a living, we decided we should give back through our time and through the money that is created by way of our business.
Subsequently, our Change the World One Click @ A Time charity program was born. Through this, we will donate 1% of each customer’s sale(s) to the charity of his/her choice. (Note: One percent of our sales will be given to the charities regardless of the profit made on the sale.) This is what we want to do. This is our understanding of being a good corporate neighbor. We hope that we will inspire others to impact their communities too, whether it be through donations of money, time or personal gifts.
It is you, our customer, who makes us successful and our cause worth pursuing. We welcome your feedback and suggestions. We will publish the list of charities we raised money for each month.

Wounded Warrior Project
Wounded Warrior Project began when several individuals took small, inspired actions to help others in need. One night while watching the evening news, a group of veterans and brothers were moved by the difficult stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq. They realized then and there that something needed to be done for these brave individuals beyond the brass bands and ticker tape parades. The resulting objective was to provide tangible support for the severely wounded and help them on the road to healing, both physically and mentally. What had been initially viewed as a small contribution (compared with what the warriors had sacrificed while serving our country) has become WWP's signature program:"WWP backpacks delivered bedside to wounded warriors."
