Day 29

Day 29 giving~

One of my goals in practicing 365 days of giving was to find creative, novel and economical ways to give. Economical often being the key word as I am not able to give monetarily everyday.  I set out to find ways to give for free.  I researched and investigated and found some really fun and easy ways to give for FREE! I encourage everyone to check out these sites and give!  I donated 120 grains of rice, 106 cups of water, and I clicked 6 times today!

The site features a vocabulary game, where every correct answer you choose donates 20 grains of rice to an impoverished country.  This is a great way to help others while increasing your vocabulary!

On this site you score points by locating cities and landmarks on an unmarked map. With every correct answer, the site donates 10 cups of water to a poor country on your behalf.  You are helping others while testing your geographical skills!

This site features click buttons for six different causes: hunger, child health, breast cancer, literacy, the rainforest, and animal rescue.  Just click the button for each cause once every day, and the site’s sponsors will make a charitable donation on your behalf. If you purchase an item from the site’s online store, they’ll donate even more.  You can make a difference in someone’s life without spending a cent every single day! Tell your friends and family about this-the more people that click-the more the sponsors will donate!

Play multiple choice crossword puzzles for charity.  Each correct answer will donate to the charity of your choice. Give drinking water, food and education to poor communities, or help preserve the rainforests. The choice is yours.  There are four charities to choose to donate to: CARE, Charity: Water, The Nature Conservancy and The Oaktree Foundation.  It's FREE and it's FUN!!
