Hey PTC: Another Way to Earn at Fundraising

Last year I became aware of Traffic Exchanges, PTC and GPTs sites and thought this could be another option to getting free monies for fundraising as well as earn a little extra income.



I joined NeoBux on October 9, 2009. It takes me less than 10 minutes to click 4 to now 9-10 links a day. I upgraded to Golden membership in November 2009 after meeting their requirements: 50 clicks credited, registered 15 days ago, and rented referrals two times. There are many things I like about NeoBux: It is secure, easy to do, and your stats and your referral stats are available 24/7. Their filter feature makes it easier for you to manage your rented referrals. The payout starts at $2.00 through Paypal. Because payments are instant either through PayPal or AlertPay, I can easily decide which monies are going to go for earnings for myself, monies toward fundraising, and/or how much monies can transfer to my Neobux rental balance.

Free Money at FusionCash!

FushionCash is a GPT site. They are also a reliable accredited business with the BBB with an A+ rating. You earn money by completing offers such as BlockBuster, book clubs, Stamps.com and surveys. You are credited instantly in most cases. Do the daily offers such as MyThoughtCounts, GiveUsYour2Cents, and Paid-to-Click offered by FushionCash. You can also get paid to participate in their forum. If you post 30 or more meaningful contributory posts, you will earn an additional $3.00 a month. The cash out is $25.00 which could include $15.00 in offers, bonuses and/or referral earnings. You can even donate $5.00 of your proceeds to a cause like Trauma Intervention Programs.

You can also earn by referring referrals. A friend who confirms his/her e-mail address earns you a $1.00 dollar bonus. A friend who completes his/her first offer, earns you a $2.00 dollar bonus. A friend who cashes out earns you a $5.00 dollar bonus each and every time they cash out.

Find out how you can donate to six different charities by reading Donating with FusionCash.net.

Find out more about FusionCash by reading The FusionCash Experiment.


All-in-all, I like these sites because you do not have to spend too much time clicking ads. It is a good and easy way to earn funds for you fundraiser without having to ask people to donate who do not know you anyway and therefore; shy away from your site for this reason. You can also have donation available as an aside because you do not have to rely only on donation. Also the free monies that you earn are yours.

Mid Week Message

Every week since July 22nd, 2009, I have been receiving quotes of the week via e-mail so I'm passing them on to my blog audience, facebook, myspace, linkedin friends or whom ever.


July 22"Remember to be lead by your dreams not pushed by your problems" ~
AD-LOVE
When life gets you down and it seems as though your problems are bullying you. Be mindful that this too, shall pass, and that these trials and tribulations are better equipping you to live more comfortably in your dreams. You are the conductor of the music that plays in your dreams. Make the music happy even in the midst of your problems.

July 29

"Work hard, play hard, and rest well" ~ AD-LOVE

The key to success and happiness in life lies in the balance of these three areas. Most of us know how to work hard, some of us know how to play hard, but many of us need to learn how to rest well. So today, I encourage you to rest. Slow down and take some time to care for yourself. Rest is rejuvenation for the soul.

August 5

"Has anyone told you today that you have a beautiful smile?" ~ AD-LOVE

Your smile is God's way of giving you a little bit of sunshine to carry each day. Use it to brighten someone's day. Use it to bring out the beauty and laughter in others. Remember: your smile could be the light at the end of the tunnel for someone in despair. Your beautiful smile may be what brings someone from darkness to light. As you bring light to others, so too, will your path be brighter. Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves. Smile today; let the light of God and the sunshine reverberate in you, through you, and out of you.

August 12

"Expect your every need to be met. Expect the answers to every problem, expect abundance on every level." ~ Eileen Caddy

What are your personal expectations, do you expect great things to happen in your life, do you expect success, do you expect people to step up and make accommodations for what you need? If not, then its time that you expect the best in every area of your life. Success begins with great expectations. As Eileen Caddy mentions in the above quote, expect your needs to be met, expect your problems to be solved and expect abundance. Its time to think BIG, its time to know that there is more than enough in this world to go around.

August 19

"Has anyone told you today that you are a gift from God?"

Love yourself, trust yourself, and believe in yourself. PRESENT yourself to the world in grand fashion. When God made you, he threw away the mold. No one can bring to this world exactly what you bring. The talents, skills and abilities that God put in you and only you are what make you as a gift so special.




So if you are so interested in having these weekly mid-messages sent to you via e-mail every Wednesday. You can subscribe for these mid-week message by clicking the banner above.

Support Share Your Soles


Share Your Soles  is a non-profit organization 501(c) (3) whose mission is to provide new and gently worn shoes to people living in extreme poverty worldwide.

A letter received from Share Your Soles date April 28, 2009 states this:

"You have changed the world by your support of Share Your Soles.  We are deeply grateful for that support....

Know that for every pair of shoes you collect, another person's life is literally transformed.  Shoes prevent disease.  Shoes allow attendance at work or school and even may break the cycle of poverty.  Equally important, shoes provide a measure of dignity to hundreds of thousands of people who've received them."


Share Your Soles headquarters is located in Chicago, Illinois and they have very few drop-off centers.  However, you are welcome to donate shoes, as I have, to their headquarters located at:

Share Your Soles Processing Center
11701 S. Central
Alsip, IL 60803

The cost of shipping the shoes is considered a donation and each pair of shoes sent is valued as a  $2.00 donation.  For example, six pairs of shoes equals a $12.00 donation  with a $25.00 shipping cost, the total donation is $37.00.  So any shoe that hasn't been worn because well-I-don't-really-like-them, my-aunt-brought-these-ugly-shoes-I'm-not-wearing-them, I-don't-have-anything-that-goes-with-these-shoes, or my-kid-outgrew-the-shoes-I-brought-him/her-last-week, can go for a worthy cause.  

You can find-out more about Share Your Soles by visiting: www.shareyoursoles.org.
(please do not send high-heels!)

GMHC: First in the Fight Against AIDS

I'm not sure if most people living outside of New York City are familiar with the GMHC or what's it about. The Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC) was founded in 1982 and it is the oldest AIDS advocate in the United States. GMHC provides several programs, services and fundraising events. It host its first AIDS Walk NY in 1986 and AWNY has become the biggest AIDS fundraiser. GMHC not only provides service to gay men, but also to women and children as well as families affected directly or indirectly to this disease.

Find out more about the GMHC by visiting: http://www.squidoo.com/GMHC. Learn about their program! Check out their Web site, register for AWNY 2009, and donate to various causes that support the GMHC, Pediatric AIDS, and/or AIDS Research. Perhaps you can pass this information onto someone who can benefit from GMHC's services.

Support ASPCA:Fight Animal Cruelty

ASPCA is another social causes that I support. If you've notice I support many causes by getting the word out about them. Why do I support ASPCA? Mostly because of the recession and I know many people are forced to abandoned their pets. I also know from first-hand experience this is heart-breaking! It is truly an awful experience! First of all, you feel quilty especially if your only option is to have to put your beloved pet to sleep. I would think that a person or family would feel just as bad if they are forced to abandon their pet. This is a lot to think about! You'll try anything to hang on to that pet for as long as you possibly can--I know I did!

Maybe this my way to redeem myself by getting the word out about the ASPCA. On http://www.squidoo.com/SupportASPCA, I provide many links to ASPCA's programs and services. You can support the ASPCA by making a donation on line or you can show your support by visiting "Arts for Animals" and purchase Animal Print Poster by Art.com. Gadi Veneziano an Abstract Painter supports the ASPCA. Check out his paintings on http://www.artbygadi.com/ and don't forget to sign his guest book.

So far, I've received nothing but praise for my efforts in helping others to get the word out about their causes:

Who is Gadi Veneziano

Breast Cancer Info

On August 15, 2008, (my 50th birthday), I created this lens on squidoo.com. I had been following up on information about breast cancer after participating in "The Race for The Cure" on September 10, 2006 at Central Park in NYC. My sister was diagnosed with stage 2 Breast Cancer in 2007, so I became more passionate with finding information on breast cancer especially for my newly created Web site, AnDzi Gallery. Some of this information spilled over to the "Breast Cancer Info" lens that I created on my birthday. Because I had researched and posted so much information on the two Web sites--this information may have saved my life. I had discovered a lump in my left breast around July 2008. I had a mammogram right before my birthday. I was properly diagnosed that I had staged 1 breast cancer on October 13, 2008 at Sloan Kettering Hospital.

Find out more visit:
http://www.squidoo.com/andzigalleryBreastCancer
http://andzigalleryonline.info/directory.html

Thanks goodness, the tumor hadn't spread! I had a Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy on October 30, 2008 as an outpatient. Read more on my breast cancer journey and what you need to know!

Learn more: http://www.squidoo.com/BreastCancer101_WhatYouNeedToKnow

I started the "What You Need to Know" lens on the date of my second round of chemo treatment! There is a wealth of information on this lens that I share. I know from experience that getting diagnose with breast cancer is very scary. One day you have a basically normal life, the next day you find a lump, have no idea how this happened, nor do you know what the outcome will be. The best advice I can offer is to get treatment ASAP. Find a reputable hospital that specialize in treating breast cancer or find a hospital that has a cancer treatment center. You would not believe the horror stories I've encountered from people who were not properly diagnosed, properly treated or diagnosed too late at the later stages!

AnDzi Gallery

AnDzi Gallery is an online site that provides a wealth of information about various social causes. Why the name AnDzi Gallery? Because AnDzi Gallery is not your typical Art Gallery. Sure it says its a gallery and yes it does have photos of art, but it is also a gallery of information.

But, AnDzi Gallery began as a tribute to my daughter when she was diagnosed with MS in 2003. I also choose the name AnDzi Gallery, because art is healing! Art has a way of comforting those diagnosed with a life threatening disease. Once diagnosed with any serious illness, your life is changed forever. And always with your treatments some sort of art, imagery or music therapies is thrown as an alternative. So art and illnesses seem to go hand and hand in these types of situations. This was the concept for creating AnDzi Gallery. AnDzi Gallerys' Haikus and Poetry were especially designed to reflect this concept. Visit: http://andzigalleryonline.info/!

AnDzi Gallery for Social Causes

In June 2008, I created a lens page "AnDzi Gallery for Social Causes." I created this lens as a sister site to http://andzigalleryonline.info/. I also created this lens as another option for raising funds for various social causes that I support. On AnDzi Gallery for Social Causes, I provide links to various charities such as: The Breast Cancer Site, The Literacy Site, The Hunger Site, and similar sites where you can donate to charities just by clicking. I'm also asking support in helping Massimo Phillipy's Fight with ALD. Massimo suffers from this rare disease also known as Adrenoleukodystrophy. Up until the end of September 2008, Massimo who was in 2nd Grade attended, Our Lady of Grace in Fairview, NJ. My son also attends this school.

In addition, I provides links to fundraisers, donating info, other charities and causes. There are several charities that you can learn about on this site or support. You may also purchase books relating to various illnesses on Amazon. Learn more about AnDzi Gallery for Social Causes visit: http://www.squidoo.com/andzigalleryforsocialcauses
