Ongoing Fund Raisers
GoodSearch.com
www.GoodSearch.com is a new search engine which donates 50 percent of its revenue to charitable organizations and schools that its users designate (the other 50 percent is what it uses to run the company day to day). You use GoodSearch.com like any other search engine – the site is powered by Yahoo! – but each time you do, money is generated for philanthropic causes, such as…Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati.
Here’s how it works.
1. Go to www.goodsearch.com (which is powered by Yahoo!).
2. Type (name of charity) into the "I support" box and click on "verify".
3. Since GoodSearch shares its advertising revenue with charities and schools, every time you search the Web at GoodSearch, you’ll be earning money for the (name of charity).
Organizations earn an estimated penny per search. Hence, if 500 people searched four times a day on behalf of one organization, it would earn $7300 in a year.
Grocery Shopping = Raising $$ for BBBS
Here’s two easy ways to help the agency raise money without costing you a cent! Next time you need groceries, consider going to Kroger or Remke Markets. Both stores have established a way to return a portion of their profits to the community!
“Kroger Neighborhood
Reward Program”
Available at all local Kroger locations as well as all affiliated stores throughout the U.S. Simply send a check for $5 to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati. We will send you a $5 Kroger Gift Card. Reload your card with additional value when you shop at Kroger (reload with any amount up to $250). Reload your card at the Customer Service Desk or at the register BEFORE your purchases are scanned. The Kroger Gift Card is reusable and can be reloaded every time you shop. Your efforts will help us raise up to 4% of every purchase!!
“Remke Caring
Neighbors Program”
Available at all Remke locations. Simply stop at the Customer Service desk at your local store and ask to earmark 2% off all purchases to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Cincinnati, #1430. You will be given a Non-Profit Member Sign-Up Form – include your name, phone number and Preferred Customer Numbers (located on the back of your Remke card/key chain tag). That’s it!
