SearchToFeed is the result of a group of Christian thinkers who came together to use their Internet experience to alleviate world hunger. The online advertising industry is moving to a performance-based model, and SearchToFeed is a response to this trend. It was created not just as a powerful medium to generate free donations for hunger relief, but also as a valuable service to both Web users and online advertisers. William Sutjiadi, the CEO of SearchToFeed sees it this way: "If we can utilize our expertise, technology, and resources to bring you the easiest and most innovative ways to increase awareness, participation, and funds to fight hunger, we believe we are a step closer to ending this human tragedy." Because it takes more than just food to end hunger, the long-term goal of SearchToFeed is to establish many free ways for Web users to generate funds to help support various anti-hunger movements. SearchToFeed is the first not-for-profit Meta Search Engine on the Internet dedicated to fighting world hunger. The company is a non-profit arm of Giving Avenue, Inc. and is headquartered in San Diego, California. This Web-based service seeks to alleviate world hunger by donating a cup of food every time a user performs a search. For more information, or to donate a cup of food for free, visit http://www.SearchToFeed.org, or contact Nelly Sutjiadi, at nsutjiadi@SearchToFeed.org. Mercy Corps is a not-for-profit organization based in the United States and Scotland, and exists to alleviate suffering, poverty, and oppression by helping people build secure, productive, and just communities. Since 1979, Mercy Corps has provided over $550 million in aid to 73 nations. The agency currently operates in more than 25 countries worldwide. Mercy Corps is known nationally and internationally for its quick-response, high-impact programs. For more information, visit http://www.mercycorps.org .
