AltSearchEngine's List of Charity Search Engines: Charles has compiled a very useful list of charity search engines. He concluded that while none of the search engines on the list rated a perfect 5 star rating, several were ‚Äúvery good‚Ä? - namely GoodTree, GoodSearch, CharityCafe, and EveryClick (U.K. only).

I'm personally a member of another pretty good niche social network, called ILoveToPlay.com. I got another soccer fan emailing me about joining his team and now when he organizes a game, I'm invited. I get to play more often without having to do all the organizing myself... (And no, I am not affiliated with the owners/creators of the site. I just think it's a great niche social networking site.)

But how about something unique, something that has never been tried before? For more detail visit here: http://www.squidoo.com/charity-and-philanthropy/
