Real monks work for their living. They also work to support each other and others' ministries. That is why we find a lot of monks are getting entrepreneurial by creating multimillion dollar businesses that catch the attention of a lot of people. www.lasermonks.com and www.monkegifts.com are two good examples of great charitable work ideas. The funny thing about these monks' work is that they are not seeking to be rich. On the contrary, they make the money which they turn around to give away to much needy people around the world. As we are about to shop for this holiday season, think about what your dollars can do when you shop at benevolentblends for the coffee afficionados.
Here is what the SFgate site is saying about them, "That model, which LaserMonks characterizes as "commerce with compassion," is also the subject of a recent book, "LaserMonks: The Business Story Nine Hundred Years in the Making," by Sarah Caniglia and Cindy Griffith, who now live at Our Lady of Spring Bank and manage operations for both LaserMonks.com and its two offshoots, BenevolentBlends.com, a coffee retail site, and Monkegifts.com, which sells products (such as Trappistine Creamy Caramels and Holy Hot Chocolate) produced by other monasteries."
Visit these offshoots: www.lasermonks.com, www.monkegifts.com
