Holiday shopping made easier and with a special purpose!
With gas prices high and the economy in a slump, nonprofits are having trouble meeting their fundraising goals this year!
In a show of support, more than 700 of your favorite internet retailers and travel sites including Amazon, eBay, Target, Apple, WalMart, Expedia and more have joined forces with GoodShop.com - donating a percentage of all your purchases to your favorite charity at no additional cost to you!
It takes just a few seconds to go to www.goodshop.com, select the Illinois Council on Economic Education, and then click through to your favorite store and shop as usual.
Also, Yahoo has teamed up with GoodShop's sister-site, GoodSearch.com, to donate a
penny to ICEE every time you search the web. This is totally free as the money comes from advertisers.
To give you a sense of how the money can add up, one organization has already earned more than $17,000!
GoodSearch and GoodShop have been featured in the NY Times, the Wall Street Journal, CNN, Oprah Magazine and more.
Never has the need for financial literacy education been more apparent than now, and the Illinois Council on Economic Education needs your help now more than ever to continue its work!
Please tell family and friends about GoodShop and GoodSearch today.
Happy Holidays on behalf of the Illinois Council on Economic Education!
