Websites make donations easy - and free of charge

Launched in 1999 and operated with five other similar sites by CharityUSA based in Seattle, The Hunger Site raises money for charities through sponsors whose ads appear after visitors click on certain links. After The Hunger Site became hugely successful, CharityUSA opened other sites, including The Breast Cancer Site and The Animal Site. CharityUSA sites primarily do not advertise their sites, but President Tim Kunin says they sometimes use Google ads to promote products the site sells to raise additional money for charities.

It’s great to see that they are still around. Years ago when I was working on my Ph.D., I came across the hunger site. I visited daily and I included a link on all my pages. Somehow over time I forgot about this great group….I think I will have to add them to my daily surfing again!
