charity
If you feel like doing
some good in the world yet don't want to fork out a penny, then
the following sites will allow you to do just that! Essentially
they are sponsored by companies who will pay a certain amount
to the charity each time you visit the website or click on one
of the sponsor's ads. You don't have to fill out any details
and don't have to sacrifice any of your hard-earned pennies.
It might even be the best thing you do all day, so start clicking!
