Using Mylot earnings for a good cause!

That's a very good idea :D One person isn't so powerful, but we all myLot users could get the moon if we wanted. Remember that 200,000 users is a huge amount. I don't even understand why I had't hear about this site before 1-2 weeks ago...

Someone had the idea of making a lottery a little while ago, i think that'd be beneficial as we could donate say 25% of the money to charities (thats put it for the lottery / raffle) and give the other 75% to the winner. It would definitely convince more individuals to help those less fortunate.

Well I hate to be un Christian or un-kind but there are many people here that really need the money themselves.. And many times Charitable Organizations, even the best only give a percentage of the total money donated to them ..to the needy. Sometimes, more then money, the needy need love and friendship. They need someone to teach them how to take care of themselves and how to survive without the need for charity. Perhaps taking food to someone next door to you is more valuable then sending money to some organization that you really don't know will give but a tiny portion of the total to the needy.

That's a noble thought....it will be cool to donate some of our earnings to charity at times.. we can do it in our own personal time. Good suggestion there.

Thats a good idea I think for those who can afford to do it. I'm a member of a few paying sites other than Mylot so I was actually thinking about this the other day to set aside what I make on one site strictly for charity and save the rest for family expenses.

There are programs that offer you this choice. They even let you decide the amount of your donation. It would be wonderful for MyLot to consider doing that as well.

Yes people can also consider mylot earnings or online one from this point of view and help charity!!may be in some system there is the direct possibility to donate them to a charity organization may be even on mylot will be introduced this possibiliy too in the future!!

I've been thinking about using some of the money I make here on MyLot to donate somewhere. If I do, it'll likely be to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. I've actually been considering, maybe the next $10+ I get from MyLot, using at least half of it to donate to them. I mean, $5 or so isn't much but it's something. Unfortunately I just don't have a lot of money myself (especially since I'm currently am unemployed and trying to get a job at the moment).

I think it's a good idea too! But most of us here are earning a little to cover up for their bills and I think they'll not give it to charity.

It`s always nice to think of others and to make good causes. However, it`s not easy to make 200000 people agree. If you try to make that, I wish you good luck

HI metamorph, Yes its really wonderful thing to do, but most people here is using mylot for money, means they need that money, I dunno maybe they were unemployed or need extra income whatever the reason is. Its really good to help other people, It feels warm and we'll smell the high heaven at the end of the day LOL. anyway its reall good idea. cheers! have a nice day.

Its nice to help other in need i would also gladly share some of my blessing but right now I am also in desperate need of some money. I have many obligation that i need to take care of first that why I join this site.

I think that'd be amazing. They should have buttons of different charities that people could directly donate their money to. I would love to donate my money to a childrens' hospital. And you're right, the small amounts of money added up would equal a great amount of money that could really help.

Wow, I haven't thought of anything like this. It is a really great idea. Perhaps it would be nice if MyLot had an option where you could donate a percentage of your earnings to a charity of your choice? You'd be able to select the percentage, the charity, and maybe even get a little section on your profile saying that you chose to donate to so-and-so charity. A very good idea! :)

that would be nice but some people are here truly because they need that money. Also, 1 person CAN make a difference.

hi metamorph2 thats great for those who do not have to really rely on their earnings for any real thing, but for me I cannot be charitable as I do not have a lot of money at all, and these earnings have to go to pay my internet bill and as my bill increased three dollars I have to put usually six to eight dollars with my earnings to pay the bill. Gold Crest retirementcenter takes most of my social security and ss i checks for monthly rent and board leaving me with only one hundred twenty five 'dollars each month for personal needs.So I have nothing left after room board and personal needs plus phone and internet are paid for, not for charities at all, maybe some charity ou ght to help me instead, he he he.

Nope, nope, nope, I am not doing it. I myself don't have any money as it is, so every dollar I can get helps me out. Count me out of any donations to charities should such an insane idea take hold here on MyLot.

to my surprise,there is some money in my account only two weeks since joined mylot.i am very happy.so,i decide to participate in mylot discassions more than ever.
