Dr. Muzos' Home Page
The CLAWZ Page for Optional Web Donations
(Information is available for other
donation sites of interest,
which do not
give you extra credit, at the non-clawz
page.)
REGISTER AT
EACH SITE, except for the Hunger Site !
It is essential that you follow ALL of the instructions below
for each site, and REGISTER
at each site, or the site and the clawz team leader will not recognize
you as part of the clawz team, and you won't get your extra credit points.
If
this is your first visit to a site, or
if you have not yet registered at the site, follow
the registration instructions below, and do
it now! It is best to
register, before you log in, on your first visit to each site.
It is possible to log in without REGISTERING, so be careful!
Be aware that these site change their format
from time to time. If you find that these instructions need updating, please
let
Dr. Muzos know. Thanks!
The clawz
sites for optional extra credit include:
Care2
sites EcologyFund
Red Jellyfish
The Hunger Site
Read about each site, and make your own choices
concerning whether or not you want to support the cause. The sites are
chosen because they have anti-spam policies and they keep track of your
visits.
You may want to print this page
of instructions.
DONATING TO Care2
SITES
REGISTERING
for the Care2 sites
1) Go to
the sites by clicking on the link below.
Contribute to
Care2.com Sites 
2) Follow
the link above. Look in the upper right corner. If you have not done
so
before, click on the "Sign in" link and follow the instructions --- sometimes
this link is in other spots on the page, so look around for it! You only
need to do this once, and it should work for all of the Care2 sites. Make
up your own username and password. Be sure to write down your username
and password to remember them for your next donation! If you are not sure
if you have done this, you can always do it again.
HELPFUL
HINT!!!
These sites may have an option which says "Remember
Me". If you generally use the same computer to make your donations,
and if you have already checked that box, you won't have to log in
and supply a password each time you visit the site. This saves you time!
You may do this from more than one computer (work, home) but use the same
username and password for each computer.
3) The
next time you visit you will have to do all of this again using the same
username and password, but if you clicked "Remember Me" (see helpful
hint above) you will, instead, see a message in the upper
left corner of the second page that says "Welcome Back <your username>!"
because it recognizes your computer and automatically credits your account.
What a deal!
4) Each
time you click a page to donate you will be taken to a page which says
'Thank You,' or something to that effect. If you scroll down that page
you can see your total donations for that site.
5) Check your
settings at each site to avoid unwanted email from the site. This is at
"My Settings," "Panda Reminders," or "Climbing Reminders."

for the Hunger

For all of the Hunger Site sites, you will get
credit for only the ONE site to which you make the most donations, according
to the following scale. At each site you will receive
one half point of extra credit
each day that you donate.
Participating in anything other than the free

SUBMITTING YOUR POINTS TO DR. MUZOS for The
Hunger Site sites
The Hunger Site web donations page has stopped keeping track of individual
donations.
In order to get credit, each time that you
donate you will have to print
the page that comes up after you donate, where it tells how
much your click donated. When you have all of your points, just send me
all of the pages. This is a lot of paper, so please do this for just
ONE of the Hunger Site causes, even though you may donate to any and
all of them if you so choose.
HAVE A GREAT SEMESTER!!!
