RAINN

Our attention has been brought to this next issue by some very high profile news stories about disgusting dignitaries taking liberties with other people's bodies. Enter this wonderful organization that is doing something about it. The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network is the nation's largest anti-sexual assault organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1.800.656.HOPE and the National Sexual Assault Online Hotline, and publicizes the hotlines' free, confidential services; educates the public about sexual assault; and leads national efforts to prevent sexual assault, improve services to victims, and enure that rapists are brought to justice.

First of all, if you're in NY and into Broadway and/or Tori Amos, get tix to Broadway Sings Tori on June 27th 8pm featuring a star-studded Broadway cast singing the music of 10-time Grammy nominee Tori Amos. All proceeds from the concert go directly to RAINN.

You can very easily help fund RAINN's important mission by shopping! Use the EZ Shopper App to shop for just about anything that you would normally buy (say...Brita water filters), from the brands and stores you would normally choose (Amazon.com), at the prices you would normally pay (2-pack for $26.99). But when you shop through this site, you're also helping RAINN benefit from all your purchases!

In order for your purchases to count toward a contribution to RAINN, download the EZ Shopper App to your computer, then any purchases you make from any listed retailer's website will benefit RAINN even if you don't start your shopping from the site. If you haven't downloaded the EZ Shopper App, just start shopping from here and RAINN will benefit from your online shopping.


A note about where your money is going: the nonprofitshoppingmall (NPSM) only pays 60% of revenues collected through the site to the RAINN on a quarterly basis, so it's not 100% of your contribution. But I look at it this way: a very worthy cause is receiving funding from major corporate retailers at no cost to you, so bring it.

Don't need linen pants or ebooks but still want to help RAINN? Make a donation.
