Contest Clue #11 – Sponsor a Child For Easter
March 22, 2008 - Written by Gyutae Park
This clue is for additional entries into the Craziest Internet Marketing Contest You’ve Ever Seen – a HUGE contest now with over $14,575 in some insane prizes. Winners will be selected by random draw on April 2 so get in now!
And now for the 11th clue of the contest… Compassion.
Performing this action will give you at least 1 extra entry for the contest.
Clue #11 – Sponsor a Child For Easter
Compassion International is a “Christian child advocacy ministry that releases children from spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enables them to become responsible, fulfilled Christian adults.” This is a program that my church is heavily involved with and I thought I’d help out by incorporating it into this contest for the Easter season. There are tons of children around the world living in poverty. A couple of dollars can make a huge difference in their lives.
I will collect all of the donations from this contest clue and submit it via this online form at the end of the contest (I’ll post a screenshot or video). Every $5 you submit will count as 1 entry for this contest.
The action is this:
Paypal at least $5 to gyutae -at- winningtheweb -dot- com. If your Paypal email is different than the one you used in this contest, let me know in the payment form. All proceeds go to a donation fund for Compassion International. Every $5 you send will give you 1 extra entry for the contest (no limit on amount).
I know that many of you are not religious, but I think this is a great way to make your contribution to charity especially for Easter. $5 can change a child’s life while helping you to win a huge prize from the $12,000 pool. Pretty good deal if you ask me. 
I’ll also recognize all contributors with a link in a future post.

What a generous thing. I recently asked for donations for the St. Jude’s Hospital. It’s nice when you can help others even if it’s only $5.
For those who are a little more on the greedy side, it does make for a nice tax deduction.
A bit out-of-the box in the context of this contest, but great idea nonetheless. The paypal address I’ve sent the money from is the same as the one I write comments on your blog with. Regards.
I’m finally caught up with all of your contest clues. I actually like the charity donations, so count me in.
This could help some people get some extra entries. A good cause.
I agree this is worth it, I am paying from a different email then I am posting with. The email I will be paying is my paypal account.
admin@themobworld.com

Hey there. My Paypal always sends from my old email and I didn’t realize it until after it was sent. It came from rennyn at gmail.com, Confirmation number: 2PY32441WV261224N.

Thanks!
Donating for a cause is a really good thing to do. How well has it been working for you? I am doing a Relay For Life for CANCER on the weekend of the 28th/29th. I put up a post about it on my blog with information on how people can sponsor me. I have had a couple of responses but it is not going as well as I would have hoped. I do commend you for incorporating something like this into your contest.
Thats a good cause.
Hope you get a lot of entries here.
My wife and I are big believers in donating to charities. Great idea!
my email may be different. either gracelandmovies@yahoo.com or mark77@charter.net.
Regardless, I hope you can still use the donation.
Donated..although i just realized that it’s past Easter, lol. Hope they can still use it!
