GOGO SHOPPERS
|
Check out http://www.gogoshoppers.ca/ where you can make purchases online AND donate to The Stephen Lewis Foundation at no extra charge! It's a great way to make Christmas purchases and support an important cause.
From their website:
HOW GOGO SHOPPING WORKS
Many web merchants pay money to websites who sign up as affiliates and then send visitors to their online stores, as long as that person ends up buying something. The cost to you is exactly the same as if you'd gone straight to their sites. For example, if you click on any of the book covers on the right (see website) and then buy something from Chapters, we'll receive a commission of 5% of whatever you spend. Westjet will give us 2% and if you click on the American Express logo and then sign up for a free no-fee Amex card, you'd get 100 Airmiles and we'd get $40. We in turn give every penny of whatever we raise to The Stephen Lewis Foundation, a fantastic Canadian charity that works with local grassroots organizations in Africa helping people with AIDS as well as the children they leave behind and the people who look after them, many of whom are grandmothers, or "gogos" in the Zulu dialect. Many more offers are listed on our Shopping section, so before you buy anything online, make sure you go there first and follow our links.
