Michigan Humane Society Charity Initiative by MOBIBO and YOU: Download to Donate

Want to get paid for viewing great local deals and help animals while doing so? The Michigan Humane Society (MHS) has teamed up withMobibo, a new application for smartphones that pays the user for viewing ads, to help benefit animals in need this holiday season. Until Dec. 31, for every download of the free Mobibo application on iPhone orAndroid platforms, Mobibo will donate 25 cents to MHS.

The donations generated by this program will help pets find their loving forever homes and create many happy holiday memories.

The Mobibo application uses the smartphone’s integrated GPS to alert consumers when they are near an advertiser’s place of business about discounts or promotions being offered. When viewed, the consumer is paid 25 cents for each ad, which can be redeemed through the user’s PayPal account. The user does not have to use the discount or offer to get paid – they receive the money for just viewing the deal.
