In search of charity

Every now and then I stumble upon something that restores my faith in humanity. One such "something" found its way to my browser last week. The Rectifi search engine www.rectifi.org.uk is the brain child of one Jonny Platt a 22 year old student of Development Studies at Sussex University. Like other search engines Rectify searches for websites based on search terms entered by the user, also like other engines it displays relevant "sponsered" adverts, however unlike other search engines the revenue generated by these paid for adverts is donated to charity. Additionally Recify also offers a price comparison service (much like kelkoo) and access to ebay auctions. Both these services also generate revenue for charity. If there's a better way to generate money for charity without actually having to do anything I'd like to know what it is!
