Search the web using GoodSearch (works just like Google) to generate income for the Highlands Nature Friends - at no cost to you.

 

  • Even after you add GoodSearch to your menu bar (and we hope you'll make it the default search engine!) you can still choose to search with Google or any other search engine at any time.
  • Do your online shopping through GoodShop and a small percentage of each transaction will be donated to the Highlands Nature Friends - at no cost to you. 
  • GoodDining is also available, and works the same way.
  • Click SIGN UP at the upper right hand corner of the GoodSearch/GoodShop page for a one-time registration, and be sure to choose the Highlands Nature Friends as the cause to receive donations from your searches, online purchases, dining, etc.
