The two Truths for today are:

  • The smallest action to help others can make a big difference.
  • Viral Marketing works!

Thanks to a colleague at Our Pal’s Place, I’ve learned about a new way to raise some funds for us by using Goodsearch.com to conduct my internet searches.

As Russ said, “This is such a no-brainer. We all do this anyway. We just need to use them.” And that is the beauty of it. I do a lot of internet searches for work, for blogging, and for personal use. So how cool is it that I can get a penny or so donated for every search I do?!?!?!

GoodSearch uses Yahoo! Search technology and this means that the searches are good quality. I’ve used this several times over the last week and have been satisfied with the results I was given. So — in short– don’t worry about the quality!

I love the fact that GoodSearch allows you to see how much has been raised for the organization. This is immediate feedback that what you are doing is making a difference. One thing I wish they had was a way to browse the registered nonprofit through categories or location. This would be helpful for people just want to turn their searches for good and don’t really have a specific nonprofit in mind.

So drop by GoodSearch.com and if you don’t have a charity in mind– pick Our Pal’s Place.
