Default Announcing the Smartphone Thoughts Charity Drive

Smartphone Thoughts is kicking off the new year by giving a little back to those that might not have had the great holiday season that we all enjoyed. And we need your help to make that happen. Smartphone Thoughts will be donating 100% of the affiliate commissions for January from our MobiHand affiliate store (both hardware and software commissions) to charity. So if you didn’t get the gift you were looking for under the tree, then perhaps you should head over to our and pick something special for yourself knowing that the commissions from that sale will go charity. Could there be any better reason to splurge a little on yourself to start off the new year? Yes, there can because that is not the end of things – To keep with the theme of giving, at the end of January I will randomly select a name from all of the sales in the past month and that lucky person will have the charitable donation made in their name. All you need to do is make a purchase from our affiliate site over the course of this month and your name will automatically be entered. So what charity are we helping? Well, I’m all about helping kids. There are numerous children’s charities out there to pick from. We’ve selected the Ronald McDonald House Charities for this event. RMHC funds the Ronald McDonald House, which I’m sure we’ve all heard of, and they also offer grants to other children’s charities. So the money will be put to good use at one charity or another. RMHC has both a US and Canadian operation, so the winner will have to be living in North America to get the charitable receipt.

Mike, this is a great idea and I hope that those in the community will use their spending power to help a great charity.

I've posted this morning in my RSS feed for my sites Smartphone visitors not to purchase from my store but from the Smartphone Thoughts store in January.

Kudos to you my friend.

This is an awesome idea!

Comeon people, get moving. If you got a new Smartphone this Christmas, it's time to load it up. If you have an old Smartphone, then it's time to get some new apps.

No problem - I want to support this effort as much as I can. I'm glad to help in whatever way I can.
