Alexa reports show that Facebook is the second most visited website on the Internet and that two out of every five Web surfers visits the site at least once a day. With so much traffic, it makes sense that people and organizations sponsoring worthy causes would want to get information in front of Facebook users. One increasingly popular method of spreading the word for causes and charities is that of donating a status bar. Simply put, donating your status bar means you post information about a charity or cause on your Wall for others to see. Donating your status bar in Facebook shows that you support a cause and want to others to do so as well.
