SearchScene for Schools
Try a more ethical search engine and raise money for charity while you search the web!
SearchScene is a charitable search engine that's powered by Bing. We make money from search ads, just like Google, but we donate 95% of our profits to charities that fight the causes and effects of climate change. Here's how it works…
-
1
Add SearchScene to your browser at school and at home and raise tokens for charity whilst searching the web. -
2
Create or join a group for your school to earn tokens collectively as part of your school. -
3
Search the web as usual, but use SearchScene instead of Google. Each search you make raises one token (approx 0.5c USD) for charity. When you collect as a group, these tokens can quickly add up! -
4
Check your school's impact on your school's impact page (by clicking on the link within the My Groups page). -
5
See how your school stacks up against other schools in terms of their impact by checking out the schools Leaderboard.
You can join up to 10 groups, so you could also create or join a class group, sports team group or just start a friends group.
Groups can be public or private. If you choose to create a public group then anyone can join, though you can restrict access by the person's email domain. If you choose to create a private group, then only people you share your private link with can join.
After you join a group, any tokens you collect by performing searches on SearchScene will be added to the group total. This is no way affects your privacy. No one else can see what you searched for – we don't collect that data anyway.
Search safely at school and at home
Activate the Safe Search Lock to lock Safe Search to the strictest setting, which prevents any adult content from appearing in your search results. This gives great peace of mind to teachers and parents. Click here to read more.
We are stronger together!
Ask your school's computer administrators or teachers to install our SearchScene browser extension on your school's computers. Using SearchScene instead of Google is an easy and free way to raise money for charity with every search you make.
Using SearchScene, you can also view your CO2 savings from tree planting, which can contribute towards your sustainability goals and contribute towards your CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) objectives.
Together, we can make a difference!
