I have found this to be one of the most inspiring stories I have ever heard.

Raised in China, Tony was trained in the way of Kung Fu, becoming a 3 time World Champion, a Master of the art, and a highly proficient combat fighter. In his early twenties Tony worked as an elite body guard, travelling the world protecting some of the world’s richest, most powerful people. When tragedy struck his personal life he fell into sinister circles and was ultimately incarcerated in a Cypriot prison.

A then violent and bloodthirsty man, talking to a stranger who begins to visit him, Tony finds his anger begins to disappear as his priorities shift and his life takes a massive turn. Where previously the other inmates had respected him for his fighting abilities, now they are drawn to him in a different way.

Shops and retailers are prepared to offer a percentage of their sales (a commission) to other websites which direct shoppers to them, as a way of saying ‘thank you’.

They have built a rather clever website that allows users to select a charity, then find a shop and make a purchase, thus directing that commission back through SurfGiver to the charity they selected. Simple.

There are many more features on SurfGiver.com designed to help charities promote themselves to users and to develop communities of supporters on the website. Charities can display ‘description’ information, website links and their logo (all fully editable at any time by the charity itself) and supply keywords for other users to ‘discover’ them through SurfGiver.com with our “Charity Search” tool.

SurfGiver was started, and is backed by two well established media companies (with many years of web development and business experience between them) when thinking of ways in which the internet could be used for good. A medium which has access to over 1 billion people is just begging for interesting ventures.

Imagine if each person online gave 1p, it would amass more than £10 million! Giving 1p would probably not affect any individual in the slightest, but £10million could drastically affect developing nations or charitable causes… and the greatest part of SurfGiver is that it won’t even cost 1p…. and it can generate a lot more per online purchase.
