Warning: This is a commercial website promotion. I'm in no way affiliated with them; in fact I heard about it for the first time today when seeing a heads-up on another site (but then, I only played RPGs a couple of times in a dozen years). ...So as always do your homework, don't take my word for it and investigate for yourself before giving away any info.
It's not the first store I see doing that and it looked interesting enough to mention though, so here goes:
RPGNow/DriveThruRPG is an online store that sells digital (PDF format) Pen & Paper RPG material and to raise funds they set up a Charity Bundle promotion. Link: www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=78023
Gamers Helping Haiti $20 Donation with Coupon
Gamers, Let's band together and see how much we can raise to help the people of Haiti.
Donate $20 and get over a thousand dollars worth of RPG titles. After you make the donation, within one business day the items will be added to your order. Then within two business days after that we'll email you letting you know you can come download them -- the response has been so overwhelming that we have to control the rate at which we're allowing downloads.
A listing of the free products available with this coupon can be found on our Gamers Help Haiti page.
If each of us gave just $20, think of what kind of an impact we could make.
Funds raised will go to Doctors Without Borders Haiti Earthquake Response. Please see our homepage to watch our donation total as it rises in support of the Haitian people and their community.
Help us spread the word on Facebook and Twitter! If you have a Twitter or Facebook account, post the following:
