Do you have a favorite charity? Are your budget and time maxed out
from giving? Here are some simple ways to give
for free:
Goodsearch
will donate 1 penny to your charity for every online search you
do. It doesn't sound like much, but if you're like me (if you run to
the computer to answer every random question that pops in your
head), it adds up quickly. The Goodsearch website offers other ways
to garner donations for your charity:
Goodshop provides
donations based on your online purchases, and
Gooddining
makes donations based on restaurant tabs.
IGive
is similar to Goodshop: Shop online through their portal,
and a percentage is donated to your designated charity.
The
Ralphs
Community Contribution program will donate up to
4% of your total grocery purchases to your favorite charity. There's
no cost to you, and you don't lose any of your shopping points or
other rewards. Create an account at ralphs.com, register your card,
and designate your charity. (You will have to re-register once a
year, starting September 1.)
Vons and
Pavilions
have a similar program, but limited to schools: they will donate a
percentage of your grocery bill to your favorite school if you
register your card at
eScrip.
By the way, you can support
ALLYnces™ and
Jay Nolan Community Services by using the Goodshop button on the left
side of this page. We get a penny every time you use our search button,
too, Woo! Hoo!
