Topic: Benelab.org - Search & Rescue

[Samker]

The whole idea of making something out of nothing and doing good with it may sound like a crazy idea, yet the internet and modern technology have actually made it possible. Advertising isn't a new idea, of course, but what is new is the ability to change something intangible, like a banner ad, into real money, and into real action. It's the whole idea behind sites like Bing and Google, and it's also the idea behind a new start-up called Benelab. The twist? Benelab gives all of its profits to charity.


How does Benelab work? Here, we'll let this diagram do the talking.

So there you go! The 3 simple steps behind Benelab. Here's an elaborate, detailed version of how it works:

"Benelab generates income like any other search engine, like Google or Yahoo - advertisers pay us money to display their advertisements on our website every time someone uses our search engine. At Benelab, however, all that income goes towards good instead of our own pockets. It's as simple as that - we found an everyday task, web search, which just happens to be one of the biggest markets on the internet, and decided to turn it into good use. We all do it anyways, so why not do it and do good at the same time?

Every month, we choose a cause that we think is really cool and set a goal, whether it be providing goats to feed entire families in Bangladesh or sending hearing aids to impaired students in Vietnam. Whatever we do, we will always update you on what is going on and show you every check and online donation we make to charities, since it is you, the user, that makes everything happen. Check our blog or sign up to our newsletter for our updates!

The purpose and vision of Benelab is to translate an everyday task such as searching the web into meaningful contributions. Join us today and make every search count!"

So what you're waiting for?
