Tab for a Cause is a not-for-profit organization that helps you give easily to a cause you are passionate about. After installing the Tab for a Cause extension, one of every few new tabs you open is redirected to a donation page for your chosen cause, raising money for your charity! In only a few seconds, you can turn web browsing into charitable giving and also keep abreast of recent news related to your cause.
When Tab for a Cause redirects you to a page, we earn advertising revenue from the banner ads on the page, thanks to our generous advertising partners. One hundred percent (100%!) of profits are donated directly to your charity.

We donate to charity at the end of every fiscal quarter, ensuring that management of transactions is feasible for the Tab for a Cause Team. We will donate only when a specific cause has earned at least $40 US to ensure we can receive important tax documentation from charities. If a cause has earned less than $40 a the end of any fiscal quarter, its earnings will roll over to the next quarter. For more information, see our Terms.
