Do you wish that your holiday shopping dollars could go just a little bit further this year and that you could have a bit more to share with others? With the help of AGoodCause.com you can do just that. It does not cost you anything extra to purchase from their list of vendors (which is extensive), you shop online and they distribute the money to the charity of your choice.
The site works by installing a bit of software (AidMaker) which tracks the purchases you make through their participating vendors. The site owners make a commission on the sales from the vendors. Seventy-five percent of what they earn gets donated to the organization you choose, without any extra work from you, once you initially set up the program. Their code of ethics is on their website along with their ideals and how they operate. AGoodCause.com takes part in the United Nations Global Compact which supports a set of core values in the areas of human rights, labor stands, the environment, and anti-corruption.
Sounds like a better way to shop not just for the holidays but all year ’round to me, what do you think?
