Just as there’s always room in your life to be more generous, there’s no limit to how many shoes you can have. Which is why we’re, like, so loving these adorable limited-edition Nine West Donate9 flats ($125, Nine West , 93 Bloor West, 416-920-3519, and others) – best of both, yo – which come with a special booklet on breast cancer prevention and benefit Rethink Breast Cancer. A fundraising fishing rod – now this is something we haven’t seen yet. The FisherGirl Survival Rod Kit ($150, www.fishergirl.com, www.cbcf.org) donates 50 per cent of the sales proceeds to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Don’t need the whole kit? The Survival Rod ($79.99) also follows the 50-per-cent-donation rule.
