Search Party
Giving thanks is easy. Giving up hard-earned dollars, particularly at a time when wearing your frugality like a medal is suddenly popular again…well, that’s a lot tougher. And if your bank account balance is dwindling or you’ve recently found yourself on the wrong end of a pink slip, giving can feel nearly impossible.
That’s why we’re thankful for Goodsearch.com. Unlike that other popular search engine that starts with a “G,” Goodsearch donates a little change to our fave environmental charities every time we use their site to perform a web search.
Here’s a short list of land- and animal-focused Indiana organizations that benefit from Goodsearch.com.
Central Indiana Land Trust
Friends of Indiana Dunes
Friends of Indianapolis Animal Care and Control
Hoosier Environmental Council
Humane Society of Indianapolis
Indianapolis Parks Foundation
Keep Indianapolis Beautiful
Nature Conservancy of Indiana
Attention online shoppers: You can also give back by using Goodsearch’s sister site, Goodshop.com. Search the list of retailers (it includes the big ones like Amazon, iTunes, Macy’s, Target, etc.), designate your charity, buy your stuff, and voila! The retailer will donate a percentage of your purchase (usually between 1% and 7%) to your chosen charity.
You’re just a point-and-click away from protecting the planet…get to work!
Piece out,
