What if The Arc of Mecklenburg 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 http://www.goodsearch.com and be sure to enter The
Arc of Mecklenburg as the charity you want to support. Just 500 of
us searching four times a day will raise about $7300 in a year
without anyone spending a dime! And, be sure to spread the word!
You can also make GoodSearch your homepage or
