Pure Charity iPad Mini Giveaway {Don’t Just Shop, Shop and Change the World}
So I introduced you to the brilliance and simplicity of Pure Charity on Tuesday, and today I get to draw you in further by this HUGE…I mean MINI… Mini but MIGHTY iPad Giveaway, which Pure Charity has so generously offered to give to one of you!
You guys… I know. Did your heart just skip a beat too?
So here’s the scoop. Listen carefully. Huddle up. Come one – come all.
1. First if you haven’t already sign up for an account with Pure Charity. {This is a MUST to be entered for the giveaway!}

3. Start discovering and backing projects that make your heart beat faster. You know the ones. I’m backing a project that my amazing friend Tsh from Simple Mom is funding through her blog network.
It’s called the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia through Compassion. {You all know how much my heart loves Compassion.} This will provide impoverished mothers medical help for their children, food, opportunities to learn about Jesus, and educates them on how to provide and care for their babies.
{It may take a little while for your funds to show up from your purchases. Patience, Grasshoppers. The credit card fairies have to clear your numbers.}

This is so fun! I just signed up and I will be Supporting Impact Africa’s Baby Rescue Center in South Africa. I’ve actually been on 2 short term mission trips to South Africa and worked with Impact Africa both times–they are doing amazing work and the Baby Rescue center will bring life to many babies who would normally be aborted or left to die in porta-potties, dumpsters, trash piles… It is exciting!!
Laundry is a neverending reality in my life. Sometimes I get frustrated at the constant stream. I don’t often think about how lucky I am that I can take a few steps to the laundry room and toss in a load. That’s why I’ll be supporting the Fayettville Laundry Love Project.
I signed up NAND can not wait to support water is life in Ghana .. My friend is adopting from their soon and I would love or help
Just signed up and will be supporting Winter warmth for women! This is a fantastic program. I wish I had known about it before doing all my Christmas shopping.
I recently signed up for an account with Pure Charity, and right now I’m most interested in supporting Seeds of Hope Rehabilitation, an organization that helps kids in Afghanistan.
I just signed up! I want to support the WaterisLife Filters for school kids in Ghana. Friends of ours take regular trips to Ghana to support building the educational infrastructure, but tell us that there is so much more that is missing. And clean water is something I often take for granted, so I would love to give the gift of healthy, clean water to kids.
What a great idea! I have just signed up and will firstly go towards helping the Compassion Child Survival Program Ethiopia that helps mums and babies grow stronger and survive things we don’t have to face. It seems like something simple to be able to survive, but these people face extra challenges and the fact we can help them by doing pretty much nothing…. is incredible!! Thanks for introducing this to me 🙂
I just signed up! The Winter Warmth 4 Women in Columbus, OH looks like a good localish project to support!
I just signed up! I would probably also join the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia, although a lot of the other projects look fascinating and worthwhile, of course!
I signed up! I’m excited to look through the website and see how I can make a difference. Thanks Jenn! Lisa~ (I’ll be Tweeting, Facebooking, Pinning, etc!)
I just signed up and will be supporting Hurricane Sandy victims, since I have family on Staten Island that were affected by the hurricane.
I signed up and am supporting clean water for kids in Benin. It doesn’t get much more fundamental than clean water. Thanks, Jen, for introducing us to Pure Charity.
Hi Jenn…
I just signed up and will be supporting save the lives of 5 baby girls in china. This is very dear to me as I have 8 family members who are adopted from China. I am going to start shopping at lunchtime!
Sherry
This is brilliant! I bookmarked your post with PocketIt to read, but hadn’t gotten to it yet. Now I am smitten. I am so excited about this organization.
I signed up and will be backing: Splash – Clean Water for Kids in Cambodia because my husband and I have a passion for alternative clean water sources. (He has done a lot of research in this area)
I will be backing Winter Warmth 4 Women! and Investing in Girls 121
Investing in Girls.
What a great website and so many wonderful causes, it is hard to pick one, but I decided to stay local since I am in Georgia and the Industrial Sewing Machine project is a great cause giving jobs to refugees and teaching them marketable skills that they can use and grow to provide for their families.
Just signed up, & I’ll be backing the Compassion program in Ethiopia. Love Compassion.
I signed up and would like to support Industrial Sewing Machine.
I just signed up! I would also go for the Child Survival Program. 🙂
so awesome!!! I just signed up and will be supporting “HELP A SCHOOL GROW A GARDEN TO PROVIDE HEALTHY FOOD” in Mozambique
I already have an account with Pure Charity and love what they’re doing. I have backed several phases of the Legacy project, Rwandan sewing machine, One home for 100 homes project, Samaritans Purse Turn on the Tap, Mercy House, and most recently Tsh’s Compassion CSP in Ethiopia. I can’t wait to see what God does through Pure Charity and SLM in Ethiopia in the coming year!
I just signed up for PureCharity + am so excited about this opportunity to bless!
I’ll be supporting three causes:
Compassion Child Survival Program Ethiopia
Samaritan’s Purse Turn on the Tap
Winter Warmth for Women (in my town of Columbus, OH!)
This is great! I used to use ebates to get money back, but now I can GIVE money on purchases I would already make!
I chose the Compassion Child Survival Program in Ethiopia as well, because we love supporting Compassion ministries.
just signed up. I will be supporting “FINANCIAL SERVICES FOR FILIPINO ENTREPRENEURS”.
I did my christmas shopping, and am now going to have to find a reason to purchase more! I would like to fund the “Providing Basic Necessities for little Rock teens” by MOPS !
Hi! I just signed up and will support Love Them Home. Several of my friends have not been able to have children, and adoption has been such a blessing to them – I’m happy to support them!
I just signed up for the children’s hospital in Ukraine. I’ve been to Ukraine and had visited another hospital there so I can really imagine what this one is like. I’m so glad there is a way to help them, and it’s so easy! What a wonderful idea!
Yes! Signed up last week. Backed Mercy House – but they are funded – hoping they add projects too!
I added Tsh’s Compassion Project, love them!
Now, I need to shop! Much left to do!
i signed up a few months ago and have been looking for the right place to donate once i earn some credits. just purchased hotel rooms with the plug-in so as soon as that comes in, i’ll be choosing a cause!
I am in love with this site and so thankful you shared it with all of us. I cannot wait to pick out different charities each time. Right now I am really passionate about WaterIsLife. We have been on several teams with providing clean drinking water in different parts of the world. It is such a basic need that I am so blessed to have but so many don’t have. Thanks again for sharing!
Jenn,
Just wanted to let you know that I signed up with our family e-mail address instead of just mine so Nick and I could both access account info.
Thanks!
Jenn
I am all signed up! I will be Compassion Child Survival Program Ethiopia! I am so excited about this and I know an amazing young woman who would be honored by a gift like this if I win! Praises and thank you for getting us all involved!
SIgned up & am following Plywood people furnishing Industrial Sewing Machines
NEAT!
I have been supporting the Legacy Project with Help One Now, building a school for some children in Haiti. 🙂
I just signed up and am so excited to find Love Them Home. Adoption became a huge possibility for us through our struggles to get pregnant and is still so dear to my heart. Such a cool website!!!
I just signed up. There are many projects that I’d like to support. One that touches my heart is Project Peanut Butter which helps feed children who are malnourished in Somalia.
This looks amazing. I heard about Pure Charity at Allume and am excited to learn more now! I signed up and am supporting Tsh’s Compassion project, too.
Wow! What a neat organization! I’ll be backing “Save the Lives of 5 Baby Girls in China.” Such a cool way to give back!
created an account. I think I’ll support Industrial Sewing Machine by Plywood People.
Hi!! I’m glad I found Pure Charity through Justice Conference 2013 tweets! Will you be attending?
I just signed up for an account. I’m excited to buy local deals and earn money for CARE FOR ORPHANS AND TRAFFICKING VICTIMS IN BENIN (PHASE 2) project. Thanks!!!
This is such a great idea, I signed up and will be backing Impact Africa’s Baby Rescue Center South Africa! I think it is fantasic and will be sharing
I am backing Eyeglasses for Peru. I am involved locally with the Lions Club and their eyeglass project…why not expand globally? 🙂 I have a few things to order from Shutterfly on payday tomorrow…and very excited to order through Pure Charity! What a cool idea!!!
I signed up. I’ll be backing Malariacube.
I’m still investigating all the charities available, and it’s hard to not want to fund them all, but one that caught my eye was microloans for Rwandan widows. My school is working in Rwanda as well and I love the idea of an opportunity to help in this way now.
I signed up- great site! I’m backing Help Home Alone Children, which gives kids in China mittens, hats, scarves and winter coats.
I will be backing the eyeglass clinic in Peru. I can not imagine the hardship of providing for a family without the ability to see. How blessed I am to have glasses!
I am backing ‘Winter Warmth 4 Women’. There was a mother in my area who froze to death after giving her children the only blankets they owned. No child should be without a mother when their death could have been prevented.
I’m so excited to learn about Pure Charity! I’m signed up and would love to support Compassion’s Child Survival program in Ethiopia. 🙂
Pure Charity is a really neat website! Now I feel even more justified in shopping! 😉
I will be backing the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia.
All signed up!!! I’d back the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia, back in school it was something big to one of my teachers hearts and we’d always hold fundraisers for this program, she even adopted a child from Ethiopia, we learned a lot about the area!
I just signed up. What an amazing program to be able to reach people in need! Awesome!
Very cool site! Thanks for sharing! I will be backing the treatment of child malnutrition in Somalia project!
I just signed up! This is such a great site with some really wonderful and very worthy causes on there!!! It’s nice that this site has brought awareness to these charities/ organizations and make them so easily accessible by displaying them on one site. I’m quite excited about this! I will definitely be supporting the Samaritan’s Purse Organization as the past two years my children have had the opportunity to work with them and it’s been such a positive experience for my family. I’ve seen firsthand the good that comes from it! It’s so heartwarming!
I signed up, and I am backing the same one as you. I love supporting Compassion any way I can because it is such an amazing organization!
I signed up about a month ago and have been Christmas shipping online. I’m back a local organization for Clean Laundry.
Just signed up! There are so many great charities to choose from. I love the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia. We support 2 Compassion kids and think it’s a great ministry! I also really like the Seeds of Hope Rehabilitation Campaign. Last year, we took in a girl from Afghanistan and the stories she shared were heartbreaking!
I signed up. I had never heard of this before. So awesome! I am backing a clean water campaign in Africa. Thank you so much for introducing me to this. I love it!
I left my comment on your status 🙂 It is 1am 🙂 I better get to sleep 🙂
Thanks for sharing this tremendous website. I like the MOPS in AR.
I had never heard of this before, looks like some great stuff going on there! I will be funding the laundry project in Arkansas.
I also chose to fund the Child Survival Program in Ethiopia. I’m very excited about this program!
I just signed up too!! Will be backing the clean water project for sure and can’t wait to look into more! Thanks for the info!!
I love this. First saw how Pure Charity works at the Together for Adoption Conference in Atlanta in September. We support a local non-profit, Families Outreach, that provides adoption grants, partners with international orphanages, and advocates for orphans. This way of giving is so easy and accessible.
I signed up! And I’m backing the organization you are, because I don’t know anyone personally who has created a project and I trust you. 🙂
I did just tell my friend who has a nonprofit benefitting orphans in South Africa about Pure Charity. She should totally try to get involved! It’s so cool!
Ok, so I just set up an account. This looks fascinating, and I’m totally on board. I need to spend a little more time digging through the charities, but at first glance, I’m digging one called: Care for Orphans and Trafficking Victims in Benin
I’m pretty passionate about the human trafficking epidemic, and would love to support a stop to that.
I just signed up, and backed the Hurricane Sandy relief fund…
being from Louisiana, i know what they have and are going through…the damage takes YEARS to rebuild. Our state is STILL not back to what it was before we were hit so bad!
How neat! And an awesome selection of retailers! I have used rebate toolbars in the past, but don’t have one currently, so what better way to start back up! I am backing the Care for Orphans and Trafficking Victims in Benin (Phase 2) in Ghana. Thanks for the opportunity!
I am now changing my shopping way.. Thanks for the information, Have a Merry Christmas
Sarah
My heart did skip a beat when I read this! 🙂 I signed up and will definitely be backing the Care for Orphans and Trafficking Victims in Benin charity. It hurts my heart to think about children being trafficked.
Thank you for letting us know about this program.
I just signed up. I love the Compassion Child Survival Program in Ethiopia.
I’m backing CLEAN WATER FOR FLAVILLE, HAITI! They had such a huge area of people their impacting and so few backers! Let my online shopping go towards some good! I also backed the Compassion organization…I have some “kids” through Compassion so I figure it’d be a clear choice!
I signed up and I’ll be backing the “Care for Orphans and Trafficking Victims in Benin (Phase 2)”.
I signed up for a Pure Charity Account. Thanks for the give away and getting me to sign up with the organization.
Just signed up and will back Compassion Child Survival Program. I look forward to shopping to support this great project.
So great! Love this whole idea. I’m backing investing in girls. though I can’t imagine not picking more than one!
I love this! I’ll be backing to help pregnant moms in china raise little girls 🙂 gendercide breaks my heart, as a mom of a girl.
Thanks for turning me on to this! I can’t wait to share it with my teen and let her choose who we support. She’s teaching me how to be an advocate and an over-all better human being (she teaches me by example). : )
I signed up. I want to back the Laundry Love project and so many more! I love this idea! Thanks for introducing me.
I signed up! And I will be backing the fight AIDS in Papau.
I signed up and am happy to support Compassion by shopping online.
I signed up, what a wonderful organization. I will be backing Investing in Girls, but see several others I would also like to help, such as helping moms in China raise baby girls.
This is such a wonderful idea! I plan to back Investing in Girls. I’m sure I’ll find more but this is my start.
I choose to back the Seeds of Hope Rehabilitation in Afghanistan! Awesome website!
This is a great website! I would back something in Latin America. There were so many that sounded so great. I love helping people and giving them a way to continue to help themselves!
The Belize development project looks pretty cool.
I am Backing “Investing In Girls” and am SO stoked about this project as well as the giveaway!! 🙂
This is a really cool take on cashback sites. There are so many worthwhile causes on there. I thought that the “Care for Orphans and Trafficking Victims in Benin (Phase 2)” looked like a great one as they are providing food, shelter, healthcare, and other necessities for orphans.
Here is my PureCharity account: https://purecharity.com/beeb-ashcroft

Jenn…I commented earlier but I wanted to thank you. I shopped today at lunch and cannot wait to see what the credit to the Orphans in China is when my purchases post. It is such a dear cause to my family….I have shared it with all of them too. Happy Holidays! Sherry Balzano
