  • GoodSearch & GoodShop: Search Engine and Shopping Portal

  • Kent Skating Club (KSC) is a registered charity with both GoodSearch (search engine) and GoodShop (shopping portal). These sister websites contribute a portion of user search and purchase revenus to charitable organizations. As a registered charity, website users indicating Kent Skating Club as the designated recipient will help generate funds for the club while otherwise doing routine activities. So great, so easy!

    How does it work? Here's how:
    When visiting either GoodSearch or GoodShop, first thing to do is indicate the charity you wish to support. Simply type in a portion of the name and hit the verify button; type in "Kent Skating Club" (without the quotations) and press verify to support KSC.

    Another, and possibly easier, means of doing the same thing is to use these links for GoodSearch and GoodShop. The provided links already have KSC's registered charity ID number embeded in the URL (ID number: 910636) and save having to perform the charity designation step before proceding to use either site.
    Furthermore, by right clicking on the links above, most browsers provide a contextual menu option to "Bookmark This Link", or similar name action, which can make using them in the future more convenient.
    Kent Skating Club wishes to thank everyone who helps raise money for the club and we hope our enrollment with GoodSearch and GoodShop provide easy means of supporting our skaters.

  • YellowBrickMall.com: KSC's Merchant Portal Page

  • Kent Skating Club (KSC) encourages everyone to make future Internet purchases through KSC's online merchant portal page at YellowBrickMall.com whenever possible. What is YellowBrickMall.com? YellowBrickMall.com's FAQ page provides an answer:

    The YellowBrickMall.com is an easy supplemental fundraising website for non–profits, schools, churches, or virtually any organization that needs help raising money. It is an online shopping mall made up of hundreds of national online merchants, whereby a portion of each purchase made from the online retailers goes back to the organization.
    Furthermore, the description provided by YellowBrickMall.com on KSC's online merchant portal page reads:
    Supporters of Kent Skating Club can help this non–profit organization financially (fundraising and donations) by linking to one of the online merchants on this page and a percentage of the purchase will be donated to Kent Skating Club.
    Please consider using one of the many merchants located here when making Internet purchases. Simply visit Kent Skating Club's YellowBrickMall.com merchant portal page, select the retailer offering goods or services you desire to purchase, and complete the transaction using the website's normal checkout process; afterwards, a percentage of the sale will be donated to Kent Skating Club. Yea!
    How much will Kent Skating Club be awarded for your efforts? Again, YellowBrickMall's FAQ page has the answer:
    The average percentage commission (donation) that [KSC will] receive is between 5% and 6%!
    This is a great way to help the club!
    We extend our appreciation to everyone helping with this fundraising opportunity. Lets all make it hugely successful.
    GO KENT SKATING CLUB!
