  • The Rainforest Site is a "click-to-donate" website, launched in May 2000, that uses ad-based revenue to conserve land in Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Paraguay and other locations worldwide. In addition, a portion of funding goes to preserve old-growth forest in the state of Washington United States. The Rainforest Site is owned and operated by Tim Kunin and Greg Hesterberg, co-owners of the for-profit company, CharityUSA.com, LLC. The Rainforest site is paid by its sponsors each time someone visits a page with one of the sponsor's ads. The money is then donated to one of several charitable organizations and used to help conserve or preserve rainforest land important to helping sustain biodiversity worldwide. The sponsors will only pay the rainforest site once per click, per person, per day. The site claims that each unique click on The Rainforest Site currently saves 11.4 sq ft (1.06 m2) of land.While The Rainforest Site is not a non-profit website, it claims that 100% of money raised through ad revenue is donated directly to charities. This holds true for all of the click to donate websites operated by CharityUSA, which apparently earn their profit from the sale of merchandise from their websites. The site raises funds for several charities; The Nature Conservancy, The Rainforest Conservation Fund, The World Parks Endowment, and The Friends of Calakmul. CharityUSA operates a number of charity-themed advertising and shopping sites, including The Alzheimer's Site, The Autism Site, The Breast Cancer Site, The Child Health Site, The Diabetes Site, The Hunger Site, The Literacy Site, The Veterans Site, The Animal Rescue Site, and . CharityUSA is a for-profit company. Although some of the revenue generated by these websites goes to non-profit organizations, a majority of it is claimed by CharityUSA. Total land conserved (en)
  • The Rainforest Site è un sito web, inaugurato nel maggio del 2000, che usa il cosiddetto sistema click-to-donate: quando un visitatore del sito clicca, senza alcuna spesa personale, su un pulsante, gli sponsor provvedono a donare soldi ad associazioni caritatevoli. Nel caso di questo sito, il denaro viene utilizzato per preservare dall'abbattimento aree di foresta pluviale in Ecuador, Messico, Perù, Paraguay ed in altre località nel mondo. Inoltre, una parte del finanziamento viene indirizzata per preservare una foresta nello stato di Washington, negli USA. Gli sponsor pagano per ogni click effettuato ogni giorno (una sola volta al giorno) da ogni visitatore: ogni "click" conserva 11,4 piedi quadrati di foresta pluviale, pari circa a 0,3 metri quadrati - territorio che non potrà mai più essere disboscato. The Rainforest Site non è di proprietà di una compagnia no-profit, ma nonostante questo il 100% dei soldi ottenuti dagli sponsor per ogni click viene donato direttamente ad associazioni ecologiste quali The Nature Conservancy, The Rainforest Conservation Fund, The World Parks Endowment, e The friends of Calakmul.
