Browse for Schools & Social Good

Now that everyone’s all geared up for some heavy duty online shopping, WhatGives!? has a suggestion as to how you can raise a little cash for your favorite school while you’re sliding through the cybertubes.  BetterTheWorld

BetterTheWorld.com is running a friendly competition for schools in the US, Canada, and all parts of the world that aims to raise money for schools and for good causes.  Sign up, add their Better The World sidebar browser and then just go about your bizness.  Points start racking up automatically whenever the browser is open and you’re online.  Easy peasy.  There are also other things you can do to earn points, like inviting your friends to join or putting a widget on your Facebook page.  The school with the most total points on December 31st wins $2,000 for the school and – wait for it – $4,000 for their favorite charity!

It’s always a little dangerous when schools start competing.  Those PTA moms are relentless!!!  But imagine what your middle school could do with $2,000.  And think of the great message it sends the kids when a good cause gets some much-needed cash, too.  It’s what’s known at Harvard Business School as a win-win.

Check it out and spread the word.
