As it has for the last 10 years, The Cable Company, along with many of its vendors, is dedicating August to help some of "the poorest people in the most ravaged regions of the world."

Here's how it works: The Cable Company and its vendors contribute a share of each sale in August to CARE, which has arranged a 5:1 matching grant from a large donor. The Cable Company is contributing 5% of each sale in August to the program and the participating vendors are matching that with another 5% donation; the total August donation is then matched by the large donor at a rate of $5 for every $1 raised.

CARE puts 91% of its donations to work in the field; 71% of those funds support community development, with the other 29% going to emergency services and rehabilitation—which means it is stretched particularly thin with the recent events in Lebanon; the ongoing crises in Dafur and in east and southern Africa, and reconstruction following the India/Pakistan earthquake. This August, particularly, audiophiles can make a big difference with their cable purchases.
