What if Tampa Heights Civic Association earned a penny every
time you searched the Internet? Well, now we can!
GoodSearch.com is a
new search engine that donates half its revenue, about a penny per search,
to the charities its users designate. You use it just as you would any
search engine, and it's powered by Yahoo!, so you get great results.
Just go to
www.goodsearch.com
and be sure to enter Tampa Heights Civic Association as the charity you want
to support. Just 500 of us searching four times a day will raise about $7300
in a year without anyone spending a dime! And, be sure to spread the word! |
