What if the Great Lakes Chapter earned a penny every time you searched the Internet?
Well, now we can! GoodSearch.com is a new search engine that donates half its revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its users designate. You use it just as you would any search engine, and it's powered by Yahoo!, so you get great results.
Just go to www.goodsearch.com and be sure to enter MGFA Great Lakes Chapter as the charity you want to support. Just 100 of us searching four times a day will raise about $1,460 in a year without anyone spending a dime! Be sure to spread the word!
