I am throwing out an open challenge to all bloggers out there. It’s very simple:

Give up one of your ad spaces for charity!

Let’s face it, many of us have done pretty well making money online – and giving up a little blog space isn’t going hurt anyone financially. Just think of all the donations that can be driven to charity of your choice by giving them free impressions. I’m not talking about charities with an affiliate program either, just anonymous direct links to their donation page. If all the hundreds of bloggers in the “make money online” niche gave up 1 block of adspace, the impact would be incredible!

It doesn’t matter if its a 125×125 tile, a 120×600 banner, or even a text link. If you are all booked up on ads, I’m sure you can find some space to carve out on your blog.  I shrunk some images and shifted things around a bit to create a permanent space in my referral links area for the charity link. See, no excuses! If you have an empty ad space its even easier. Just drop a charity link in there instead of the “space available” image.

The charity I selected to start is the Lance Armstrong Foundation. I have been lucky enough to raise several thousand dollars for the LAF in the past and they money really goes to a great cause. We all have been affected by cancer either personally or through a friend or family memeber. It’s time we help find a cure.

Some come on all you bloggers.  Accept the challenge and give up 1 for charity!
