Mission Statement
ClassifiedCircles.org
tm
puts a special emphasis on helping to stop
global warming. The free ongoing benefit
auction helps environmental, community, animal and other
charities and non-corporate dominated media outlets by providing a way
for you to buy, sell and rent
goods and services, with the request that
a flexible percentage or all of the profits will
be donated to these causes. The seller selects
their favorite charity from our growing list and
the donation amount
(1-100%) and keeps the
rest.

story She started the service as an apparent need
for an easy way to buy and sell merchandise within communities and
a way to fund raise for schools and charities. The service was
started as a newsletter version with help from volunteers. The web
format was conceived and developed during her business degree
studies at University of Southern Maine. A contract was entered
with the Redondo Beach group, now Adconnect, below in 2001 to
further assist in development and refinement of the system.
