up with Buyforcharity.com becomes a member and enters willingly
into this agreement. Members list causes for their own use, and
for the use of other members. Monies are earned by members and
then disbursed to their selected cause(s). Buyforcharity.com is
providing a service to its members, not to causes. Any taxes on

- The
member understands that Buyforcharity.com uses its commercially
reasonable best efforts to present various online merchants to
the member, and enables the member to designate a commission specified
on the Buyforcharity.com site on purchases from the Buyforcharity.com
merchants to the selected cause account. ("Buyforcharity.com merchants"
are defined as any merchant currently participating as a merchant
on www.Buyforcharity.com.) A buyforcharity.com member understands
that to earn that rebate on purchases, the member must start their
shopping at www.buyforcharity.com or through a buyforcharity.com
newsletter. The member also understands that Buyforcharity.com
seeks to find paying advertisers who wish to reach the member
for the purpose of showing the member ads or selling merchandise.
The member agrees that, after deducting for Buyforcharity.com's
commission and fees, the net proceeds of any such showings will
be delivered by Buyforcharity.com to the qualified organization
designated by the member.

to forward donations to the member's selected cause. Buyforcharity.com

endeavors.

via check will be carried over to the next month. All donations
are paid for by our third-party merchants/partners. Therefore,
we are dependent on payments received from them to be able to
disburse the donations to the charities and organizations. In
the event of non-payment by the merchants/partners due to an unexpected
situation (i.e. go out of business), we will try our best to collect
the donations, but will not make any guarantees, promises or commitments.
