Click For Charity

Click for charity websites are non-profit websites set up to fund causes at no cost to you. Their sites are funded by advertising space. You click on your cause and advertisers will donate money. These 100% free and they do work.

http://www.care2.com/ - Care2.com is a great click for charity community. If you sign up (though you're not required), your actions on the site will give you points, which you can redeem for other charities such as providing food to people and animals, malaria nets, etc. They also will give you a free email account at their site if you wish to have one. You can also sign petitions for numerous causes ranging from the rain forest to anti-whaling to LGBT equality in the army.

http://www.freerice.com/ - Freerice.com is a free site (requires no membership) where you play a vocabulary game to give free rice to people. You're given a word and you must choose the correct definition from the list given to you. There's no time limit. For every right answer, you donate ten grains of rice. I usually donate one thousand a day (yes, I actually play that game one hundred times). Takes about 20 to 30 minutes to donate that much. The games does increase your vocabulary though so it's a win-win situation.

http://www.thehungersite.com/ -Thehungersite.com is simple. You wait roughly half a second for a page to load and click donate. Less than 20 seconds altogether. Do it daily.

Welcome

Welcome to the Tikkun Olam Guide. For those who don't know, Tikkun Olam is a form of Jewish charity. It means "repairing the world" in Hebrew. Most denominations of Juidams and Jews hold the belief that all people apart of Judaism should participate in Tikkun Olam activities. Even for non-Jews, Tikkun Olam is still a fine concept for acts of charity. Activities deemed Tikkun Olam include a number of things such as fighting poverty, animal welfare, and equal rights.
