Turn Online Shopping into Philanthropy - for Free!
Cause-Shopping! Install the iGive button on your browser - their cookie generates an automatic corporate donation from the retailer that gets earmarked for the non-profit of your choice. You shop as usual - and donations pour in! It does not cost you a penny!
