CarrieByTheSea 0 #1 July 31, 2010 I have just discovered this fantatic website: GoodShop. If you are like me, you do the majority of your shopping for nearly everything online. I was surprised to discover not only many of the stores I shop participate in GoodShop, but nearly all of my charitable organizations are participating. In short, instead of going to the J.Crew website directly, I go click on J.Crew through GoodShop where it first takes me to a page showing what percentage of my purchase will be donated and then allows me to enter the non-profit I wish to have that donation go toward. Next—before I click “shop now”--I view any potential coupon codes listed below. Once I click to shop, I am re-directed to the J.Crew website and the designated percentage of my purchase will go toward the non-profit I entered. Participating stores donate between one and 30% of your purchase! Play around. Read the success stories, and get familiar with the many ways to give, including GoodSearch. Happy giving while you shop! "Nature is cruel, but we don't have to be." ~ Temple Grandin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarrieByTheSea 0 #6 August 11, 2010 I thought folks here might like it. REI participates and gives 2.5%. The North Face gives 5%! I just made a purchase today from Nike who donated 4% to my selected recipient. At first, a couple dollars might not seem like a lot, but think of how many people shop these online stores each day. Click on the "Amount Raised" for your non-profit and others and see how it adds up--each of those couple dollars added up to $34k to the ASPCA! I LOVE this website.
