Support IRIS without spending any extra money…
Want to help support IRIS — Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services — without spending any extra money? Please consider these two VERY easy ways today:
For Internet Searches:
GoodSearch.com is a new Yahoo-powered search engine that donates half its advertising revenue — about a penny per search — to the charities its users designate. Use it just as you would any search engine, get quality search results from Yahoo, and watch the donations add up!
How to:
Go to www.goodsearch.com, and find the bar that asks “Who do you Goodsearch for?” Type in “Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services” and click verify — it should then recognize us as an established charity. (It will list IRIS as our abbreviation and New Haven, CT as our location — then you know you’ve done it right!) You may then use it as you would any other web search engine.
For Online Purchases:
GoodShop.com is a new online shopping mall which donates a percentage of each purchase! Hundreds of great stores including Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, ebay, Macy’s, Staples, and Barnes & Noble have teamed up with GoodShop and every time you place an order, you’ll be supporting your favorite cause.
How to:
Go to www.goodshop.com and find the bar that asks “Who do you Goodshop for?” Type in “Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services” and click “Verify” — it should then recognize us as an established charity. (It will list IRIS as our abbreviation and New Haven, CT as our location — then you know you’ve done it right!) Then, click on the merchant whose website you want to visit. This will lead you to their webpage, where you’ll be able to access all their regular merchandise and prices.
Even small purchases will add up, so please remember to visit Goodshop and designate purchases for IRIS before you shop online, especially this holiday season!
