iGive, YouGive, WeAllGive!


Online shopping. 
Everybody does it. 
If you're reading our blog, 
you probably do it too. 

iGive.com is one of the simplest online fundraising tools we've ever used! You can make a donation to The Red Thread Promise every time you shop online. Even better, if you sign up as a new member before November 12, 2013, The Red Thread receives a $5 bonus!

  1. Sign up — no cost, obligations or hidden fees.
  2. Choose The Red Thread Promise as your charity.
  3. Search from over 1,350 participating stores on iGive.
  4. Click on the store name and you'll be directed to that store's website.
  5. Then SHOP!
  6. You can even track how much you've given to your cause.
iGive takes care of the rest. They make arrangements with online retailers to give a percentage of the profits directly to your charity of choice. No additional cost to you. Just begin your transaction from iGive so they can track the purchase and make the donation.

We've received over $600 in donations from iGive members - that's enough to feed one hungry child in Haiti for the ENTIRE SCHOOL YEAR with leftovers ($540 = 810 meals).

Here's a handful of stores you can choose from (and we didn't even make it past C!):
  • 1-800-flowers.com
  • Aeropostale
  • Amazon.com
  • American Airlines
  • Apple Store
  • AT&T
  • Autism Speaks
  • Avon
  • Bath & Body Works
  • Brooks Brothers
  • Burger King
  • Build-A-Bear Workshop
  • Cabela's
  • Caché
  • Cafe Press
Let's take that headline to heart. 

If WeAllGive, together, we'll provide more hippotherapy, more surgeries, more fresh food and more love to kids with disabilities.

Change shopping for good through iGive.
