I don't know whether you guys have heard of Pat Rothfuss, he is the author of the fantasy book "Name of the Wind"

he also has a charity, named Worldbuilders. What he does once a year, if get scifi/history book/game donations from authors and publishers, and then offers them up for free to people who donate to Team Hiefer, a charity that buys livestock in the 3rd world.

What you could get is random, some are signed first ed or other collectible, others are just batches of new releases as it goes into a lottery, and you get a certain number of tickets for what you donate.

it is a good cause, check it out
