New website gives half its profit in donations and prizes

New Zealand charities, community groups, Not For Profits and schools, are all set to become the main beneficiaries of a new online garage sale and shopping site, USave, which will give away 50% of its sales commissions in donations and prizes.

USave, at www.usave.co.nz, opened its doors to the public today with over 40 charities already registered to receive donations. Schools and community groups are on the way, and hundreds of merchants are offering thousands of products at cut price deals.
USave co-founder, Steve Harris says, "We want to be the biggest donator to the New Zealand community in the country, and we want the public to save money on everything they buy, not just daily deals. To help facilitate that we have designed a website where people can shop for some of the best sales in town, give to their favourite charity, community group or school, while going in the draw to win daily prizes.

This little character is after a name

“Half of our profits are going toward donations and prizes to the USave community. Furthermore, for each person that signs up an additional $5 goes to their community group or charity of choice.
“For the first time ever people can make a donation, to the Kiwi cause closest to their hearts, without putting themselves out of pocket. At a time when the gift of giving has become more difficult than ever, USave makes it easy and fun.”
