Creating a ripple for charity
Want to donate money to charity just by clicking on an ad or using a search engine? Ripple is a website that allows you to do just that. Four Australian friends have gotten together and have developed a site where all the money raised by advertising is given directly to charity. When you use the search engine, the search engine sponsor pays money to Ripple, a 100% of which is passed onto charities such as Oxfam, Water Aid, The Oaktree Foundation and The Grameen Foundation.
If have a look at my sidebar, you will notice a new graphic that asks you to click to provide a community access to clean drinking water for 6 days. With 6 out of 10 diseases in developing nations caused by contaminated water, a supply of clean water is invaluable to helping a community stay healthy and able to support themselves. When you click on the graphic you will be taken to the Ripple website and shown an ad, all the money the advertiser pays Ripple goes directly to Water Aid, an international non government organisation dedicated exclusively to the provision of safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the world’s poorest people. All it takes is a minute of your time to help change someone else’s life.
If you have your own blog, please consider putting a Ripple button in your sidebar to help increase the money raised for charity.
