Take A Stance: Support A Good Cause

With all the worries in the money market, the last thing you have money for is charities or donating to a cause.  That is where socialvibe comes in very handy. 

Socialvibe is a site that allows you to earn points, and in turn that becomes money for your cause. 

The points system is a fairly simple thing to learn.  Just logging in daily brings you five points.  Update your status, answer the daily question and read the forum and you will receive more points.  These things can only be done once a day, but can be done everyday.

Inviting people is unlimited and also brings in more points for your cause. 

Another great way to earn points is to pick a sponsor to support your cause and post the badge on any kind of profile you have; such as a myspace or facebook.  Everytime somebody clicks on your badge, you earn more points. 

Other than earning points for your cause, you can also win prizes from your sponsors.  Something most people look forward to is getting their 2,000 points (or inviting five people), and earning a pinkball.  The pink ball is a unified item for people who belong to the socialvibe community.  Most of the people who recieve pinkballs take a photograph to show their support.
