RECENT ARMA INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION FOUNDATION (AIEF)

RESEARCH REPORTS

One of the primary benefits that the AIEF brings to RIM professionals is the collection of research reports that are paid for by the Endowment Fund of the Foundation (often with the assistance and support of local ARMA chapters).  The reports listed below have been published within the last year and are available, free of charge, from the Foundation website: www.armaedfoundation.org

USE GOODSEARCH.COM AS YOUR DEFAULT WEB SEARCH TOOL

Did you know that you can help the Foundation every time you search or shop on the internet?  It's very easy.  Just go to www.goodsearch.com, and designate the AIEF as the organization to benefit from your searches.  Then bookmark the Goodsearch.com web page and use it whenever you need to search …. or shop.  Not only will the Foundation receive approx. $0.01 for every web search you perform, but if you use their links to major web retailers (e.g., Amazon, Lands End, Best Buy, Target), a percentage of your purchase will also be donated to the Foundation.  How can you beat that?

Pilar McAdam, Foundation trustee reported: “Just as an example, I started using Goodsearch.com as my primary web search tool about 18 months ago, and have tried to also use their portal for my internet shopping.  As a result, over the past 18 months, my activities have resulted in about $65.00 being donated to the Foundation, and it didn't cost me a dime.”

“That may not sound like a lot of money, but I think my searching and shopping activity is fairly typical.  If 100 people across the US had done the same things I did over the past 18 months, it would have resulted in $6,500.00 being donated!”
