Prevent Child Abuse America, CauseWorld and Mashable.

We are quite happy to see Prevent Child Abuse America referenced in the always terrific Mashable's recent article Checkins for Charity: The Rise of Geo-Social Good, which discusses emerging, and continuing, trends in social media and fundraising, including our relationship with the also terrific CauseWorld.

Introducing shopkick!

From the makers of CauseWorld, the mobile phone app that has raised more than $30,000 for child abuse prevention, comes a new and FREE way to support our cause: shopkick.

To check-out this new app, visit shopkick. It is currently available on iPhones and will be coming to Android operating system phones, including from Verizon Wireless, later this year.

shopkick is the first mobile app that gives you rewards and offers simply for walking into stores. You can collect kickbucks (reward points) and bonuses at nearly all places around you. Using it is easy:

Check in: You can collect kickbucks for checking in to many places around you!

Walk in: Collect kickbucks just for walking into major stores such as Best Buy, Macy's, American Eagle and Sports Authority, and major malls nationwide. Plus, you'll get exclusive shopkick deals at those stores that will save you big bucks, and give you kickbucks.

Scan: Collect kickbucks by scanning products in stores with your phone.

Plus More! Look for special promotions for collecting kickbucks.

Redeem your kickbucks for rewards or donate to charity! You can redeem your kickbucks for cool rewards like gift cards or music downloads, or like Cause World, donate your kickbucks to Prevent Child Abuse America and shopkick will make cash contributions to support our work!

So go ahead and visit shopkick today, download the app and enjoy one more way to enhance your shopping experience and support your favorite cause at the same time!
