One of the best gifts we can give to others is making a difference in someone's lives. It doesn't take much effort to help people in need and with the popularity of the Internet, reaching out to people can go a long way. If there is a charity that is dear to you that you wish to see a improvement in, there are websites you can visit to donate to the charity of your choice.

From Quick Guide: Charity Start-Up Basics
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    GoGostep. Note that 50 percent of their proceeding goes to the environment, cancer and animal charities. Every month, Gogostep will select five charities to donate money towards and the only thing you need to do is click on paid advertisements or search the web. For every click, money will go to each charitable organization.

  2. Step 2

    Goodsearch. One of many popular charitable websites, they give their visitors a chance to choose a charity they would like to give donations to. The only thing you need to do is search for thousands of organizations, choose the ones that you want to give back to and start searching away. Also there is a Goodsearch online shopping spot where you can make purchases through any of the participating stores available.

  3. Step 3

    ClickNow. Helps raise money for families and children in need by a single click of a search button. Bookmark this search engine to start making a difference for those in need.

  4. Step 4

    SearchKindly. Search for anything you want through Google search tool that is available on the SearchKindly home page. Every click is a third of a cent but will surely add up when you search SK once a day. Plus you can vote for your favorite charity using the voting poll on the front page.

  5. Step 5

    Clicks4Cancer. This website is dedicated to help raise funds for cancer awareness organizations. Similar to GoodSearch, you can make your donation through clicking on advertisements and making a purchase. For every item you buy, 70 percent of the money will go to the C4C.

  6. Step 6

    CatchTomorrow. This website donates funding to public schools nationwide, from K-12. Select the school you want to raise money for by clicking on the map, find your state and you will see many schools to choose from. Use CatchTomorrow as you will use any other search engine for news, website, videos, etc. Fifty percent of the money goes to your school.

on 10/24/2008 Just to add one to the list.

MicroGiving - People in need create a profile detailing their situation, they are then verified by the website staff. Then donors can make donations and the site takes 0% of the donation.
