GoodSearch

While reading mental floss, they recalled a post they had made earlier in the year about a search engine GoodSearch.com that donates to a charity of choice for all searches made.

IQ-tips: The Good Search

A mental_floss reader named Roxie recently suggested we do a post about a search enginey type site called GoodSearch, which helps support your favorite charities.

Here’s how it works:

Instead of using Google to help you find the perfect birthday gift for your mother-in-law (read: second-hand sports car with malfunctioning brakes), try GoodSearch instead. Once there, it’s pretty simple to follow their directions.

And for those skeptics out there who don’t think their little search matters, check out this success story from the website: “From just 132 searches in July, the Screen Actors Guild Foundation is on pace to reach 10,000 searches this month, which will raise more than $100 to support their educational, humanitarian and philanthropic programs.”

I will now make this my search engine of choice with SaveDarfur.org as my charity of choice.
