This Giving Tuesday, Millions of People Turn Every Day Actions into Support for a Cause

November 27 2012 (San Diego’s East County)—Today is “Giving Tuesday,”  when people across the U.S. help give back to their favorite causes. Through Goodsearch, GoodShop and GoodDining, more than 15 million people are helping to “simply do good.” Over 2,500 merchants are offering special discounts this Tuesday, November 27, to encourage shoppers to support charitable giving.

More than 108,000 charities and nonprofits have raised millions through these efforts.  Just choose your favorite nonprofit (East County Magazine or Viejas Wildfire-Emergency Alerts  are two great options!) which will receive a portion of your online and dining purchases as well as a contribution from Goodsearch every time you search the Internet  Here’s how to get started:

Goodsearch.com:  Each time someone searches the internet with goodsearch.com[1] (powered by Yahoo!), about a penny is raised for the charity or school of their choice!  You use it exactly as you would any other search engine. 

Goodshop.com: Each time someone clicks from goodshop.com[2] to one of the 2,500 plus participating stores (including Amazon, Target, Toys R Us, Sephora, Macy’s, PetCo and more), an average of 4% of the purchase price is donated to the shopper’s favorite cause (at no cost to them!).

To support Giving Tuesday, goodshop has partnered with dozens of top merchants to provide exclusive discounts so everyone can shop, save money and give back this holiday season!

Gooddining.com: Each time someone dines at more than 10,000 gooddining.com[3] restaurants across the country, up to 6% of the cost of the meal is donated to the diner’s favorite cause.

Doing good doesn’t have to cost money or be complicated, and your actions can count both on Giving Tuesday and every day! Supporters of over 108,000 local and national nonprofits have used goodsearch to raise millions in meaningful donations, helping causes from animal welfare to education, among others. The ASPCA, for example, has earned more than $47,000 – all through the searching, shopping, and dining out of their supporters!

The Goodsearch team is revolutionizing online philanthropy so that everyone is easily able to support the causes most important to them, every day. “Goodsearch users have taken over 1 billion simple and free charitable actions to raise nearly $10 million for our nonprofit and school partners”, said Scott Garell, CEO of Goodsearch.  “We are delighted to help America simply do good on Giving Tuesday when people search the web, dine out or buy holiday gifts with our exclusive deals.”
