Mikey's Note:
FabulousSavings.ca/cares means more to me than I can express in a simple note. For the past 10 years, we have been an online coupon site that continuously strives to save people money. We have become successful in this regard and believe it's time to give back. Over the past few years, we have been very involved in the Starlight Children's Foundation. We have seen how our simple donations can light up a child's life, and we want to share this experience as everyone deserves that feeling. We will be making a charitable donation once every week to a charity that makes a difference. This is one of the proudest and most important moments for me and this company because it's our chance to give back to those who are in need. Thank you for visiting this site, and please check back to see the next charity. Also, please feel free to contact us with anything you would like to express.

Merry Go Round Children's Foundation
Merry Go Round Children's Foundation is a Toronto, Ontario-based charity whose mission is to level the playing field for children by donating complete state-of-the-art home computer systems including internet access to those children who are observed by teachers to embody a passion for learning and the potential to excel academically if given more opportunity. It is a volunteer effort which brings together members of the educational, policing and corporate communities to share their expertise in particular fields pertaining to this unique program.
What we did to help: FabulousSavings.com donated five Internet-ready computers! These computers were simply sitting in our storage, so when we heard about this charity, we were so excited. To give a child a computer is amazing because he or she can use it for school and to explore the world online, and the family gets to use it as well! We wish the recipients of these machines all the best.
