The ASLA Fund, the foundation that seeks to expand the body of knowledge of the landscape architecture profession, has partnered with GoodSearch.com, a Yahoo-powered search engine. GoodSearch donates 50% of its revenue, approximately a penny per search, to the charities designated by its users. The Dirt would like to encourage you, faithful readers, to use GoodSearch and designate the ASLA Fund as your charity of choice. In less than two weeks, the Fund has accrued more than 600 searches.
You can start using GoodSearch in a variety of ways.
