Facebook for Charity?

Play games and win money for charity? Sounds too good to be true!

Dominos Pizza is doing exactly this. The company has made giving to charity easy, fast, and even fun! So how are they doing this?

On the Domino’s Facebook fan page, a game appears that all users can access. For every minute you play the game, Dominos will donate ten cents to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

So far, 26,723 minutes have been played for charity. That’s a grand total of $2,672.30.

While altruistic marketing is by no means a new concept, it is fairly new to the social media arena. Domino’s recognizes that many people use social media for much more than keeping up with friends and family.

They understand that consumers feel good when they give to charity. This positive feeling then becomes associated with the Domino’s brand and the products they offer. It’s a win-win situation. The charity befits through donations and Domino’s is held in a favorable light by consumers.
