The Good Stuff

Did you know you could support your favorite charity just by searching the Internet? You can if you use GoodSearch.com, a search engine powered by Yahoo. When founders Ken & JJ Ramberg realized that search engines generated nearly $4 billion in advertising revenue, they started their own, aiming to donate 50 percent of the profits to charity. goodsearch.gif It's easy to use: Just go to GoodSearch.com, enter the charity you want to support in the provided field, and search.
