Searching for Alpha Chi!
| Thank you to Dana ZU '01 for recommending GoodSearch! You can choose Alpha Chi Omega Foundation as the group you support. Each search earns about one cent – think of how those pennies can add up!! New Search Engine, GoodSearch.com, Raises Funds for Charity New York, Sept. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- The brother sister team of Ken and JJ Ramberg have announced the launch of GoodSearch.com ("GoodSearch"), the Internet search engine founded on a simple concept -- Search the Internet, Make a Difference. GoodSearch enables users to help fund hundreds of thousands of charitable organizations and schools by searching the Internet as they normally would. Inspired by the loss of their mother to cancer, Ken and JJ wanted to link the power of search engine technology with charitable giving. GoodSearch is just that platform. Using GoodSearch is simple. You use it as you would any search engine -- GoodSearch is powered by Google to ensure the best results -- but each time you search, money is generated for your favorite charity or school. Search engines make most of their money from companies that pay every time a user clicks on links during a search. GoodSearch has developed a way to pass along money earned from your search to the causes you care about most. "Last year, search engines generated close to $4 billion dollars in revenue from advertisers," says co-founder Ken Ramberg, the founder of JOBTRAK Corporation, which he then sold to Monster.com. Ramberg continues, "Think about what your favorite cause could do with even a fraction of that money!" JJ, Ken's sister and GoodSearch co-founder, a television reporter and a Stanford MBA, adds, "The amount of money charities and schools can receive is limitless. The more you search the more money the organization you support will collect. Multiply that by millions of users and we can really help a lot of causes in need of funds." The launch of GoodSearch is especially timely since it will not only help fund organizations focused on Hurricane Katrina, but it is invaluable to the hundreds of thousands of smaller causes that often see shortages in contributions during these difficult times. So ... * Find a cure * Support your school * Provide disaster relief * Protect our environment Search and Support today ... GoodSearch!
