HeroTab Firefox Add On

HeroTab is a Firefox add-on that transforms your 'new tab' page, allowing you to raise money for nonprofits by simply browsing the web. Each time you open a tab, you'll see a new image, the amount raised, and a small banner ad. The ad revenue collected is used to donate to the causes you support. Help feed families, protect coastlines, plant trees, fight for social justice, and more with HeroTab!

Pretty easy way to give back to Charity that is free. Have been using it for a few days and its cool to see how quickly I've been raising money. The ads are actually targetted too. Only wish there were a few more charities to support.
