Help Fund Epilepsy Research & Epilepsy.com Without Spending a Dime
Mon, 12/08/2008 - 12:20Have you purchased anything online lately? Have you made travel arrangements? Do you order office supplies for your organization online? Have you searched for tax services? Have you searched for something on the Internet? If you have done any of these things, chances are you could have helped fund epilepsy research without spending a dime.
When you shop online for products or services, start your search for the store at the shop.epilepsy.com shopping mall. Over 600 stores means that you are going to find the store or service you are looking for. By starting your shopping experience there, you enable that online store or service to donate a portion of your purchase to epilepsy.com and the Epilepsy Therapy Project, thus helping fund research. (See our mission statement for more information.) Make sure that the next time you buy a gift, make a travel reservation, buy a new cell phone, look for tax help or any other service, you are helping fund epilepsy.com and epilepsy research. Bookmark shop.epilepsy.com now!
Do you have a credit card? Do you earn rewards points from it? Several financial institutions will let you donate your rewards points earnings to your favorite charity. If you have rewards points dollars that you aren’t going to use, why not ask your financial institution to give them to the Epilepsy Therapy Project? This way you can make a difference without having to spend any extra money.
Use Good Search to find information on the Internet and help fund research. When you have a question and you are looking for the answer online, start at www.goodsearch.com. When you get there, select the Epilepsy Therapy Project as your charity and all the searches you do online will generate money to be donated to support epilepsy.com and fund research. Bookmark www.goodsearch.com now!
Last, but not least, don’t forget that we have a fundraising partner for the holidays with The Fruit Company. If you are looking for a holiday gift for that special person who has everything, why not get them something healthy and delicious from The Fruit Company? The Fruit Company will donate 15% of any online purchases you make from our website or this newsletter back to the Epilepsy Therapy Project.

Hi Colina,
Are you talking about placing an order with The Fruit Company? If you are, I'm not sure but I suspect you are correct and they probably only ship orders within the United States, but I can check for you. I just need to be sure that's what you are referring to.
