I am not really sure what to think of the most recent Live Search blog post that says, Use Live Search and We’ll Donate to Team Seattle and Ninemillion.org. If you search at https://teamseattle.live.com/, Microsoft will donate $1 to Team Seattle’s Seattle’s Children’s Hospital fund. Each time you search at https://teamseattle.live.com/, Microsoft will donate $1, but it has to be at https://teamseattle.live.com/. In addition, if you search at https://click4thecause.live.com/, Microsoft will “contribute to ninemillion.org, a UN agency-led campaign providing education and sports programs for the nine million refugee youth around the world.” The specific amount of that contribution was not disclosed or immediately found.

If the maximum contribution of $25,000 is achieved prior to January 29th, 2007, this page will be updated to notify you of the program status. Thank you for your participation!
