What is
better than being able to help others while shopping. Thanks to Altruisto,
this is possible. This tool allows you to kill two birds with one stone!
Available
for Chrome and Firefox, it is an invisible app that works quietly in the
background. You just have to keep shopping as you usually do and when you visit
one of its partner stores, you will be automatically prompted to activate a
donation. When you buy something from the site, the shop will give Altruisto a
portion of the sale. This is usually about 2 to 6% of the price of the product.
However, you will be pleased to know your price is not affected at all. The
money is then forwarded to a charitable cause of your choosing. For instance,
you can help in the fight against animal cruelty, animal suffering, global
water crisis, malaria, or even COVID-19. All of the charities that you can
donate to are vetted by GiveWell or Animal Charity Evaluators.
While Altruisto does not work with Amazon at the
moment, it has several other partner stores such as travel and hotel booking
sites, financial products, and official sports apparel. Download the
extension for free and keep helping others at no cost at all.
