NBIA Disorders Association - 10th Anniversary Cookbook

Easy, Free, Ways to Contribute

iGive.Com

We have a few new ways you can support NBIA Disorders Association that are free! The first one is iGive, an online shopping program.

All you have to do is go to www.iGive.com, find what you want to buy and credit NBIA Disorders Association during check out. Prices for iGive members are identical to those offered at each individual Web site, and a percentage of your purchase goes directly to our organization. It's that simple.

The amount donated to our organization, which can be up to 26% of your total purchase (most companies are in the 2-5% range) qualifies for a tax deduction.

There are currently 654 stores participating in iGive.com - including Target, Staples, Hallmark, Adidas, Bath and Body Works, Discovery Store, Ann Taylor, Apple Store, Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, Circuit City, Coldwater Creek, Gap, Gateway, Expedia, Lands End, LL Bean, Office Depot, Red Envelope, Sephora, Sports Authority, and many more.

An even easier way to donate is to use the site's "Shopping Window." Downloading the iGive Shopping Window is fast, doesn't affect the speed of your surfing and respects your online privacy. It is compatible with almost all Web browsers. When you type the name of any iGive store (like "target.com") into your browser, your purchase will automatically count for a donation. That way, you can go directly to a company's Web site and our organization still gets credit if you have the Shopping Window and have previously registered at the iGive.com site for our organization to benefit.

Each new member who registers at iGive.com (for free) and makes a single purchase within 45 days receives a bonus $5 donation to NBIA Disorders Association.

To join iGive "click" on the iGive logo below and follow the directions to join their program.

GoodSearch.Com

Another new and easy way to raise money for NBIA Disorders Association is just by searching the Internet with GoodSearch.com. There is no cost to you and if you are searching anyway - why not have it help our cause? Just go to www.GoodSearch.com to sign up and say you want our organization to benefit when you use their search engine. You can add it to your favorites list, have a toolbar, or even make it your homepage for easy access.

It's simple. You use GoodSearch.com just like any other search engine — the site is powered by Yahoo! — but each time you do, money is generated for our organization. We get one penny for each search. It doesn't sound like much, but if everyone uses it as their search engine, at the end of the year those pennies will add up! We currently have $23.93 posted to our organization and that is before I was even aware that we had been signed up for this program! In December of each year they mail a check for whatever amount was generated if over $100. You can check at the site how much has been raised for our organization each time you go there if you are wondering.

We hope that not only will you use GoodSearch as your main search engine from here on out, but will also pass this message on to your friends and family. The more people who use this, the more money will go to NBIA Disorders Association.
