How many people knew about this?

I just found it when I signed the common cause petition to get wall st out of politics.

You choose Common Cause as your charity and they send them money even when you don't buy anything!

Awesome!

Sure beats giving Google all the $$!

1. K & R.
I've been using it for many months (and encouraged others to take a look.) They have a good shopping vendor database of participants that increases proceeds even more. Black Friday and Christmas will be here before we know it.

4. Tried To Select "Occupy Wall Street" as My Charity, Didn't Work.
Can someone figure out how to get the "Occupy Wall Street" folks to qualify for Goodsearch's search/shop donations?

5. They would have to meet the criteria
of a registered charity or non-profit or as described here:

"To participate in our program, your organization must be a registered non-profit or school. This can include charities, hospitals and clinics, volunteer services, political organizations, fraternal organizations, professional associations, religious organizations, governmental agencies, etc"

6. Also-- if your favorite cause isn't in the database
you can add it yourself, as long as you have all the info needed

http://www.goodsearch.com/addcharity.aspx

"Before submitting an organization, please be sure that it doesn't already exist in the database. Try searching on only part of the organization's name first. For example:

To find "Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation", search for "Diabetes".
To find "Warner Avenue Elementary School", try searching for "Warner Avenue".
