Does anyone know how I can see all of the Charity wishlists from amazon - all I can find is a search by name box, which doesn't help too much...

OK, let me rephrase this, in less vague terms and maybe someone can suggest something.

Basically, I'm looking for a charity, that has an amazon wish list. The charity should be a childrens charity, and uk based.
..basically I want to give something this Christmas, and I have issues with giving money to charities, because I don't want to see chunks of it swallowed up for admin, and so on.
So I'd rather do something where I can buy some physical gifts, that will actually go to a child

Anyone?

Not sure they can be searched like that Mr LM...

I know on eBay you can search for charity items....but thats not what you want...

sadly no, that just lets you set up a wishlist that people can buy from, and nspcc get 10% of the money spent from amazon.

This allows you to buy items that get sent to a childrens hospital in Liverpool and you can search for other charities from that page - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/registry.html/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go/%20203-5464953-4385563?%5Fencoding=UTF8&type=wishlist&id=12XFM2SFCNINR

Thanks, but that search just lets you search all wish lists regardless of charity status.

But thanks for the suggestion for that charity

yeah, but that search does it across all wish lists, whether or not they are a charity? - that's my underlying problem (well one of them)

I'd go down to your local Sally Army. (http://www1.salvationarmy.org.uk) I think they maintain wishlists, but if not they'll say get generic toys, male/female and they'll distribute them locally to needy children.


10 things The Salvation Army will be doing this Christmas

Throughout the Christmas period, The Salvation Army will be:

6) Delivering toys to children from poorer families
