Northtowns Pet Blog: No Cost Ways to Support Your Local Shelter | Pets

With a few simple changes to your daily online behavior, you can support animal welfare organizations and your favorite local shelters and rescues without spending a penny. Here's how: Visit Freekibble.com and Freekibblekat.com and donate ten pieces of tasty kibble to shelter pets when you answer a daily trivia question at one or both of the sites. Put your daily web searches to work for pets with GoodSearch.com, a Yahoo-powered search engine donating a penny per search to the charity you choose. And begin your shopping at online malls GoodShop.com or iGive.com and a percentage of every purchase is donated to your favorite charity when you purchase online as usual.
