    Default An easy way to give back, and it costs nothing

    I just discovered on the Project Linus website that if you use their link for the GoodSearch search engine, they make money from it. Here's the link: http://www.goodsearch.com/?charityid=815783 I've got them set as my default search engine now, and it's an easy way to raise money for a worthy organization with quilting connections.

    Merry Christmas, everyone!

    Goodsearch.com is the best search engine I've used as it draws from so many sources. They have many verified & approved charities affiliated with Goodsearch. I've even seen it cited in Reader's Digest consumer news as being very worthy. Thanks for posting this. I highly recommend it.

    guess this isn't where I would go to find petterns and places that I could send the quilts to the Project Linus.

    Amy Jo, the Project Linus website is www.projectlinus.org. What I posted was a link to a search engine (like Google) where if you use it, it will raise funds for Project Linus. Figured I may as well use them as Google, and do something good while searching.
