DealCloset is committed to the community. DealCloset, DealDawg, Auction-dog and SaleRoundup currently donate a portion of each sale to Peninsula Habitat for Humanity and Second Harvest Food Bank. See our Habitat for Humanity thank you and Second Harvest thank you links on their site. Through donations that buy building materials and volunteer labor, individuals from all walks of life can build affordable ownership housing together, strengthening our community. Furthermore, by creating a building partnership with families that have very low incomes, we are lending a hand up not a hand out. First-time affordable homeownership, enables workforce families to break the cycle of poverty, learn self-sufficiency and create better lives. We believe in supporting organizations where people have figured out sustainable solutions that work over time and improve the community. |

Our continuing success helping people find great deals online allows us to expand support of worthy causes to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. They are dedicated to curing leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma while improving the quality of life of patients and their families. Almost 111,000 people will be diagnosed with one of these blood cancers this year. Approximately 55,100 people will die. They divide their expenses into Research (33.7%), Patient and Community Service (36.7%) and Public Health and Professional Education (29.6%). Leukemia is the most common cause of death from cancer among children under age 20. Meyeloma is the most difficult blood cancer to treat; only 31.9% of people diagnosed will survive. Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma is the sixth most common cancer in the US. |
