What's a widow's mite, you ask? The HSN provides a helpful explanation:

The Bible relates the story of the widow's mite in the book of Mark, verses 12:41-44, in which Jesus observed people giving money to the treasury and noted that a poor widow who gave two small bronze coins, known as mites, was more generous than the rich men who gave more valuable coins.
