Better The World is a social change network that strives to make it easy and free for people to earn money for charity.
By creating an account on their site and downloading their browser add-on for FireFox or Internet Explorer you can start earning points that add up to cash for the charity you choose to support.
Similar to Everywun, points are earned by viewing ads and thus socially responsible companies advertise on the site.
Better The World currently has signed up nonprofits such as World Wildlife Fund, Trickle Up, Children’s Miracle Network, United Way and Habitat for Humanity. And they are looking for more.
Monthly contests are also held as a way to keep you earning points. This month’s contest is a drawing for an Apple Macbook and only the top 20 point-earners for the month get a chance to be in the drawing (they also will be drawing from all members for an Ipod Touch).
