This year why not buy a colour for yourself or a friend? Just\u00a0go to the Find A Colour tab and treat yourself to a tour of your favorite colors. The Glidden paint company has organized the colors into triangles on a huge chart. Search for just the right one. Once you find it &#8211; name the color, tell why you picked it, and come up with a one word description. Then make a donation and its yours.<\/p>\n<p>I love the creative thinking behind this idea. Its both an interactive way to raise money and a unique way to track all kinds of color preferences, color naming trends, and color associations. I&#8217;m glad that UNICEF will benefit and thrilled that there could be a very comprehensive color data base to dig around in when its done.<\/p>\n<p>If you like the idea &#8211; pass the info along to your friends. Its an affordable and fun way to support a good cause.\u00a0If you buy a color, send me the six digit ID. Mine is #781111.
