Donate for FREE!

[AnimalAvenger]

SocialVibe donates to charity every time you do one of their activities, which often consists of rating a video or answering a question for a sponsor. The donation add up quickly, and it's completely free. I recommend either Action for Animals or PETA2 as a cause, though I am doing it for To Write Love on Her Arms at the moment.

www.goodsearch.com - Donates 1 cent per search. I currently Goodsearch for the Dessin Animal Shelter

www.freerice.com- Donates free rice each time you get an answer right. Subjects include, English vocabulary, foreign languages, chemistry symbols, and much more. SUPPORTS KFC AND OTHER CRUEL CHAIN RESTAURANTS It is now run by the UN.

www.freekibble.com - Donates kibble when you get the daily question right

www.freekibblekat.com- Same as Freekibble but donates to cats, instead.

Quote from leusa on PETA2:

Many AR/Veg groups need financial help, but can't always get it, not everyone can donate...
Have you every seen Ads on these sites? Clicking these ads generates about 30 cents to support the website. Note that clicking the ads on free sites (i.e-freewebs,xanga, etc.) does not give money to the site, it's given to the host- i.e freewebs, so clicking those ads is useless as it wont support animal rights.
Here's a few websites who's ads you can click:
S4TWC.com: this is a fairly new site but its coming up, here's the link www.s4twc.com/wordpress/ they also have info about the ads here: www.s4twc.com/wordpress/?page_id=163

Happycow.com: There are no ads on the homepage, but they are in there somewhere! www.happycow.net

Vegweb: Awesome recipes, ads are on the homepage & everywhere else! www.vegweb.com

Goodsearch hint:

Goodsearch now knows when you make a repeated search merely to earn your cause money. For example, when you search for "hotmail" multiple times, it will not give money to your cause for searching for "hotmail." Instead, if you want to get to hotmail.com and earn money while doing it, type in something like "free e-mail." Keep changing what you type in in order to access the website, so it doesn't know that you're merely trying to earn your cause money.

Here's an update on Freekibble I got recently in case you want to help:

"Freekibble has donated over 1,779,084 meals to homeless dogs and cats and have given this food to 13 monthly shelters and over 60 large one time donations to shelters across the country! We are starting to do some new things here at freekibble.com to raise even more food for homeless animals. Including an event called the Freekibble Hi-5! On Thursday November 5th, we will donate 5 times the kibble (50 pieces), for each person that plays Bow-wow trivia. Halo Pets is sponsoring the event with no limit on the kibble!

Therefore, we want to get as many people as we can to go to the site - so we can raise a bunch of kibble! Our goal is to generate 5 million pieces of kibble on the 5th. This is a great opportunity to help feed a lot more dogs. Thanks!"

I just found out that FreeRice supports restaurants like KFC and Taco Bell. It is a not a non-profit but is actually a business. It is owned by Yum! foods, which also owns KFC and many other companies.

Whoah! FreeRice is owned by Yum!?!?!?!?!?! That is crazy. Do they profit from it?

I wonder if I should continue using it... I use freekibble and goodsearch and sometimes freerice when I'm bored....

I just scanned the FAQ page of FreeRice and found this:

Does FreeRice make any money from doing this?

FreeRice does not make any money from this. FreeRice is a website committed to the cause of ending hunger around the world. It is run entirely for free and at no profit. All money (100%) raised by the site goes to the UN World Food Program to help feed the hungry. Sponsors make all payments to the UN World Food Program directly.

I'll try to look into it a bit more just in case. I do know that Yum! does, or at least did, own it.

I also found this:

What is the history of FreeRice?

FreeRice was founded in October 2007 by John Breen. In March 2009 Mr. Breen donated the site to the UN World Food Program. In making the donation, Mr. Breen expressed his hopes that FreeRice will be able to grow over the coming years, helping to feed and educate as many people as possible throughout the world.

I guess Yum! no longer owns it. I'm glad I could start playing it again guilt-free.
