The first thing you do when you join Better The World® is select a cause to support. Whether you're interested in the
environment, health, or humanity, there will be a cause that our charity partners offer that will align to your interests. And we will be adding more all the time.
No. You can be signed up for only one cause at a time. By focusing on fewer causes rather than many, we can concentrate our efforts
into making an impact on a few select causes instead of spreading ourselves too thin across many.
The amount of money you will see as the total raised by our member community for a specific cause is accurate and real. The goals
being set, as well as the progress made to achieve these goals, are also real. However the idea is to get the money to the charities so that they can use it in
whatever way it is urgently needed in support of your cause. So, sometimes your charity might use the money in other ways besides those we've posted as goals. We're
OK with that because ultimately the true goal here is to make positive change in the world and we believe that your charity is best equipped to know how the money we
raise for them can be used most effectively.
What do I have to do? I don't have much time or money to give.
We don't ask our members to give money or volunteer. Instead, you take simple actions online to generate money for your cause. They each take a minute or two and don't require ongoing effort; we've designed them so that you can help simply by doing what you already do every day!
Each of these actions have either a direct or indirect impact on how much money we can raise through advertising. We'll reward you
with points that signify how much of an impact you're making. The resulting effort you put in will either attract more advertisers, allow us to increase our
advertising rates, all to fund the cause you support.
Our advertising partners pay funds according to the number of times people that see their ads. So the more actions you take, the more
money you raise. These funds are paid to Better The World® and 90% of the money generated goes directly to support your cause.
We are also committed to being transparent, 90% of all funds generated through our website will be directed to our charity partners.
We've hired a globally recognized auditing firm to approve and sign off on our annual financial statements to ensure that this is done.
Refer your friends and stay engaged! We have many more features planned in the coming months, to enable you to make an even bigger
difference, so stay tuned!
Once I've taken some actions, now what?
Too often when you give to a charity you don't get to see the results of your actions. Here at Better the World® our
charity partners will be engaged with you regularly to keep you up-to-date on the progress of your cause.
As an additional incentive, top supporters every month will be eligible to win great prizes; we keep track of your contributions
by a points system, and you get the chance to win some great prizes and help save the world.
You get points when you take an action. Actions include downloading and using the charity sidebar, doing a search, referring friends,
and adding our Facebook badge. You can see the actions that can earn you points here.
Each cause has specific goals and we report on the progress we're making to achieve them. There is also a newsfeed to keep you up
to date on the impact you're helping make in your cause.
Thanks for taking the time to check us out. If you're ready, simply click the "Join Now" button, you'll be up and running in under 2 minutes.
We hope to see you soon!
