Everyclick, the search engine that donates 50% of its profits each month to charity,
is urging business leaders to encourage their staff to use its services and raise
money for charity.
Everyclick is calling on business leaders to introduce ‘desktop
donating’ at work so that their staff members can search the web and raise funds
for charity at no cost to themselves.

“The British workforce is unknowingly pouring millions down the drain which could
be going to hundreds of charities both nationally and internationally”, claims the
search engine company. Given that there are 17.4 million office workers in the UK,
some of whom will search the web each day, there is potential to develop a valuable
new income stream for charities.

Everyclick is therefore asking business leaders and public figures ranging from 
Ken Livingstone to Sir Martin Sorrell, Head of WPP, to adopt ‘desktop donating.

Polly Gowers, everyclick.com Managing Director, estimates that the top five employee
sectors in the UK (banking, public sector, accountancy, law, and marketing) could
generate £60 million a year between them if they switched to everyclick.
