Give food to needy people( needs 2 minutes of your time only)
All,
For the last 4 years I have been a daily visitor to The Hunger Site and its associated sites(Breast Cancer, Literacy, Rainforest, Child Health and Animal Rescue). All you need to do is click a button to provide support in each area. For example clicking the Hunger Site button provides 1.1 cups of food for people who need it and last year this provided nearly 44 MILLION cups of food. A click on the Rainforest site buys 11.4 Sq feet of rainforest to stop it being developed and again, last year nearly 345 Million Sq Feet was saved.

It literally takes two minutes of your time to do this daily.

Thanks

Ian

I'll go and check it out, but I don't see how clicking a button can provide something for nothing - it sounds a bit like an urban legend to me

When you click a button it dispalys small adds from sponsors. They pay a small amount for each click that you make. You don't need to wait for them to download before moving to the next page. That is how it works.

HTH,

Ian

I'd heard of this before and wondered how it worked.

Just given it a try.....no pressure for donations, no downloads, If it is a hoax, it has only cost me a minute or so but I would like to think that advertising money is going to a good cause so will continue to "click" every night!

Busman, It isn't a hoax, As I said, its been going a long time. As you also said, no pressure to donate, no spyware/downloads at all. Just Click and Go!

Thanks to everyone who decides they can spare the minute or so to do it.
