Subject: Keep a Child Alive Needs Your Help!

Dear Friend,

As you know, I'm a supporter of Keep a Child Alive and as you can imagine nonprofits are facing a fundraising crisis this year. Amidst an economic crisis there persists the AIDS health crisis, and the children and families I help serve at KCA need lifesaving AIDS medication and care.

The good news is that more than 900 of the top Internet retailers and travel sites including Amazon, eBay, Target, Apple, Expedia and more have joined forces with GoodShop.com to donate part of every purchase to your favorite charity or school at no additional cost to you (more than 72,000 nonprofits are now on-board)!

It takes just a few seconds to go to www.goodshop.com, select "Keep a Child Alive" as your charity, and then click through to your favorite store and shop as usual.

Also, Yahoo has teamed up with GoodShop's sister site, GoodSearch.com, to donate a penny to your cause every time you search the web. This is totally free as the money comes from advertisers.

To give you a sense of how the money can add up, the ASPCA has already earned more than $23,000!

Please tell 10 friends about GoodShop and GoodSearch today. They've been featured in the NY Times, the Wall Street Journal, CNN, Oprah Magazine and more.

If you are searching and shopping anyway, why not do so to help save lives?

Thank you!
