The Google Grants program supports organizations sharing our philosophy of community service to help the world in areas such as science and technology, education, global public health, the environment, youth advocacy, and the arts.

Designed for 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, Google Grants is a unique in-kind advertising program. It harnesses the power of our flagship advertising product, Google AdWords, to non-profits seeking to inform and engage their constituents online. Google Grants has awarded AdWords advertising to hundreds of non-profit groups whose missions range from animal welfare to literacy, from supporting homeless children to promoting HIV education.

Google Grant recipients use their award of free AdWords advertising on Google.com to raise awareness and increase traffic. Three of our award recipients have achieved these results:

It's a very cool program and the grant can be substantial. A beast cancer .org we work with was approved into that program and it worked very well.

Be nice if more companies would do things like this.

Hey,

I think he was saying that it was a beast to setup the campaign or something like that.

Shak, the program has several non-US non-profits running PSAs with the Google Grants program right now. I know there is one (maybe two?) Canadian, and at least one UK-based. There are probably a few more that I am not thinking of off hand as well.

Yea, this was very nice to see. Good deeds usually breed good Karma - which Google can use all it can get of in the coming months.
