New Way to Support Charity With Your Friends!

A new innovative website, GoodInKind.com, just launched in Ithaca and provides a unique way to raise money for your favorite charities.   At GoodInKind.com you can offer services to be purchased by members of the community or by other students for a set price. The money from the transaction is sent directly to your chosen charity.

For example, you and a group of your friends might offer to help someone paint their bedroom, or cook a big meal for a dinner party, or you can simply offer to tutor a member of the community in your favorite subject or sport.  When you post the offer on GoodInKind.com, you set the price and choose a local charity to receive the funds.  When someone contacts you to buy the service, GoodInKind takes the payment info from the buyer and channels the money to the designated charity.

 It’s a great way to support your favorite cause while doing something fun, teaching or learning something new, or just helping someone out.

For more info, including a short video explaining the idea, visitwww.goodinkind.com.
