With hectic work and home schedules it would seem there is little time left to sit down just to write out a donation check and put it in the mail.
However, here at The DFW Wildlife Coalition we’ve just made your life a lot more simple!
Thanks to the internet there are a few new (and fun) ways to make donating to The DFW Wildlife Coalition easier than ever and much less time consuming.

Donate Without Spending A Dime
|
|
Goodsearch is a great new search engine powered by Yahoo! (in case you were wondering if it was legitimate-it is) and it is free to use.
Simply go to www.goodsearch.com when you are looking for something on the internet, and it will take you to the main search page. It will then ask you to type in the name of a cause (DFW Wildlife Coalition), and it |
 |
will keep this on record so everytime you use Goodsearch they will make a donation in our name!
You can even download their toolbar so it will be your primary search engine-that way it’s “forget-proof”! You can then type in whatever it was that you were searching for, and you have just made a donation without spending a dime!

Shop For A Cause
|
|
IGIVE is another neat way to donate when shopping online.
Simply go to www.igive.com and you’ll be amazed at how many retailers we use everyday that will make a donation in our name.
This is great for those of you who do a lot of online shopping plus you will be able to see the exact percentage they will donate.

They also have a wonderful little toolbar to download so that everytime you shop online a “reminder” window will come up if the retailer is listed with them. Chances are they will be, since there are over 650 online stores to shop with!
This site is a lot of fun to look around on and shop of course! They even offer a $5.00 bonus donation for first time users. Again this is free to join and is another great way to help.
|
SHOP FOR CHARITY DAY is our newest donation program and can be found at www.shopforcharityday.com They have a great website, and again it is free to shoppers. They have a nice philosophy and offer special promotions and contests as well.
Check out this site the next time you shop online and take a look around.

Happy Shopping!These are all terrific and easy ways to make a donation and, yes, of course we still accept good old fashioned donations by check!
Either way you choose, we appreciate your dedication to helping the wildlife of the Metroplex.
Thank you from everyone here at The DFW Wildlife Coalition.
