GoodSearch.com

Happy 4th day of Easter!
From the April edition of The Bethlehem Star (the newsletter of Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Kalispell, Montana - the last parish I served), I learned about a new internet search engine. Goodsearch.com donates half of its revenue (about one penny per search) to the charity of the searcher's choice. It works like any other search engine, and is powered by Yahoo! I've used it a few times already, with good results.
To start using goodsearch.com, go to the website. You'll see two boxes - the search box, and a box that says "Who do you GoodSearch for?" In this box, simply put in "LDR" and start searching, to benefit Lutheran Diasaster Response. Or you could choose another charity, if you'd like.
A penny for every search may not seem like much, but imagine if 1000 people searched twice a day using goodsearch. Over the course of a year, LDR would receive more than $7000. Goodsearch.com makes it easy to support a wonderful non-profit organization, and all you have to do is something that you already do anyway.
