We’re all feeling the pinch these days– especially charities. But as Americans feel more strapped to simply make ends meet, they may not be thinking of helping others as much. However, here is a simple way you can still support your charity of choice, without even opening up your pocketbook.
It’s called GoodSearch.com. It launched in 2005 as a way to turn online searching into a profitable experience for charities and non-profits. So far 74,000 charities have signed up to participate in GoodSearch. Here’s how it works:
1. Choose a charity of your choice. There are lots of them to pick from!
2. Conduct a search just as you normally would, through the GoodSearch search engine.
3. Your charity receives money for each search you do. Fifty-percent of GoodSearch’s revenue goes to the charities. You can keep track of how much your charity is making through GoodSearch.
You can also try out GoodShop. It’s a way to make money for your favorite charity by making purchases online. A portion of every purchase goes to the non-profit you’ve selected.
So if you’re a charity or school looking for an easy way to make extra money, or you want to support your favorite non-profit, give GoodSearch a try.
