Help Make A Difference.

Post by even13flow »

Just recently I downloaded Windows Live Messenger to find an added benefit, every conversation that you have on it will donate money to a charity. Here's the main website.

http://im.live.com/messenger/im/home/?source=MSNTDLINK
i’m is a new initiative from Windows Live Messenger™. Every time you start a conversation using i’m, Microsoft shares a portion of the program's advertising revenue with some of the world's most effective organizations dedicated to social causes. We've set no cap on the amount we'll donate to each organization. The sky's the limit.

So any time you have an i’m™ conversation using Windows Live Messenger, you help address the issues you feel most passionate about, including poverty, child protection, disease, environmental degradation and animal protection. It's simple. All you have to do is join and start an instant messaging conversation. We'll handle the donation.

There's no charge, so join now and put our money where your mouth is.
From your Contacts window, click the arrow next to your name and select "Options".
Next to your name, type one of the following codes below for the cause you'd like to support, and click OK.
Note – Windows Live™ Messenger 8.1 is required to participate.
*red+u American Red Cross
*bgca Boys & Girls Clubs of America
*hsus Humane Society of the United States
*naf National AIDS Fund
*mssoc National MS Society
*9mil ninemillion.org
*sierra Sierra Club
*help StopGlobalWarming.org
*komen Susan G. Komen for the Cure
*unicef U.S. Fund for UNICEF

All you have to do is add one of these codes next to your display name.

I hope that you all will take part in this, it has already raised over $96,000 since March. By the way, feel free to add me to messenger if you haven't already: even13flow@msn.com

Talk to you all soon!

I will do this. Sheesh, I think that my conversations with just a couple of my friends who I talk to for hours on end every day will raise about a million bucks for sure! ;P

Ahhh damn, that sucks. I didn't realize it was US only. Anyways, US residents can make a difference I guess!
