MISSION OF THE MONTH

 

As the summer’s sultry season has come to an end, many people welcome the crisp and light air of October.  For many, October reminds us all that some of our favorite holidays are just around the corner.  Some of us look forward to the changes of color that this season brings, from radiant red to pumpkin orange and bright saffron.  Others of us are thankful for this annual season as a reminder that life goes on and things change.  But for some, all of these things will pass by without notice.  For some, they will be too occupied with their own burden to notice the delightful ambiance that autumn surrounds us with.  Who are these people, you may ask.  Victims of breast cancer. 

 

Did you know that every two minutes, someone is diagnosed with breast cancer?  Did you know that every 14 minutes a life is lost to breast cancer?  And did you know that 40,000 people will die this year from breast cancer, not to mention that 400 of them will be men.(Source:http://www.breastcancerawareness.com)

 

Breast cancer can attack anyone at anytime, even without family history.  Make October your very own breast cancer awareness month.  Knowledge is power, strengthen yourself by becoming aware.

If selected all commission earned from links on our site will go to your cause.)

 

LinkMosaic has dedicated the month of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month to promote a greater understanding of this all too common disease. All commission collected during the month of October will be donated to this Cause.

For the month of September 07 all income will be donated to the Emergency fund of ADRA International.  Between the Asian Monsoon, the Peru Earthquakes and the Hurricane Season, I am sure they can use the help to replenish their Emergency Response Fund which is dedicated to emergencies. I hope we can raise a good amount through your support of the site.

Please browse the list of partners we have. If you use another website that is not on the list let me know so I can see if they have an affiliate program.

As you know, your ideas and opinions are always welcome.

Have a great September.

 


 

UPDATE: Thank you again for all your efforts. We have generated $125 to donate to the Unicef Education Funds.

 

 

Back 2 School…if you can!

 

August is back to school month for a lot of parents and merchants. As a parent myself, I think I am more worried about school than my daughter.  As I prepare for  my own,  I like to take few moments to think about the parents who can’t afford to take their childrend back to school…

 

This month, I am going to donate the majority of the referral revenue to the UNICEF.

 

According to their web site:

“Education is a basic human right, vital to personal and societal development and well being. All children deserve a quality education founded on a rights-based approach and rooted in the concept of gender equality. A rights-based approach to education will address inequalities in our societies that are deep-rooted and often gender-based. Such inequalities exclude millions of children, particularly girls, from school or condemn them to educational experiences of very poor quality. ….”  

 

If you are interested in donating to a charity that support education, visit http://www.charitynavigator.org/ where you can evaluate them on line.

 

If you are shopping online for back school, here are some of the partners that will give back a percentage of your transactions.

 


UPDATE: $200 was collected and will be donated for this cause.

 

 

JUNE 2007

 

Greetings…

 

For the period of April/May/June 2007 the income generated from transactions you perform through our website will go to help Cleft Lips Children get access to much needed surgery and change their life forever.  

From the www.smiletrain.com web site:

 

Clefts are a major problem in developing countries where there are millions of children who are suffering with unrepaired clefts. Most cannot eat or speak properly. Aren’t allowed to attend school or hold a job. And face very difficult lives filled with shame and isolation, pain and heartache.The good news is every single child with a cleft can be helped with surgery that costs as little as $250 and takes as little as 45 minutes.”

 

Thank you again for your continuous support for the site and the mission.

 

Remember,

Click, Support and Make difference…

Lets make a difference!

This season, use your mouse to make a difference. You can make your clicks give a gift to someone beyond your list.

Each link and banner on this site represents a mosaic of online merchants. These merchants will contribute a percentage of transactions made thought this site, if there is enough funds each month it will be donated to an NGO. The cause name and the amount will be listed monthly. See the list.

If you share my mission, you can help promote it by using this site as the starting page to all your online shopping and browsing, and tell your friends about us.
