Hello there! 
I realized I know a good amount of click-to-donate kind of sites (check spoiler at the end for more info), so I thought I could do something with that.
The project is going on RIGHT NOW!
The project/challenge is quite easy and only requires a few minutes a day and a couple … a few… Ok, hundreds of clicks. It lasts 10 days; from April the 8th to April the 17th. I will check and give this a close on the 18th (unless something unexpected happens).
For this challenge to be beaten SPOTM will have to accomplish the following:
(Revised) :

To keep count of everyone's score I'd like you to post this:
(Links also here for your convenience)
[x110] Care2 Click-to-Donate
[x70] TheHungerSite
[x10] Bhookh
[x426] TheBigTest
[x1305] FreePoverty
[x8000] FreeRice
And edit it every time you make some progress or at least when you feel you may forget your score, that way you keep it nice and clean and in only one post. If you don't like this you can use screenshots (preferably just links to the picture, not a post with it) or suggest something else. What’s important is that you let me know your score before the end of the project.
(Btw, you can register on FR to safely keep your score there, you are not required to do it, but if you do remember to join the PogoTribe group =). And, I think there are also groups on Care2, but I’m not sure how those work, if you want, we can make one of those too)
(Explanation of each site)
Well, I guess this was sort of a fail.
Oh well....

For this challenge to be beaten SPOTM will have to accomplish the following:
(Revised) :
- 250 or more clicks donated to charity or a cause using Care2's Click-to-Donate page. And, 160 or more clicks donated to charities or causes using The Hunger Site
- 34 or more clicks donated using Bhookh.com
- 1500 or more teaspoons of medicine (Oral Rehydration Solution) were donated using TheBigTest
- 9000 or more cups of water were donated with FreePoverty
- 40,000 grains of rice were donated using FreeRice (19200 is an estimate of the amount of grains it would take to feed one person during one day, we can do more than double that).

(Explanation of each site)
Care2: It is an internet community that helps connecting people who are interested in helping the world; activism, health, education and greenish causes are all topics you can find in Care2. Care2 also has a Click-to-Donate function that allows you to donate daily to many different causes by simply making a click that will make some advertisement appear to pay for your donation. In the Click-to-Donate page there is also a “daily action” button included; clicking this will take you to the daily action, sometimes it may be just information on how to do something that should improve your world or the world, and sometimes it may be a petition that you can sign to help with a cause.
TheHungerSite: Just as Care2’s CtD, it works with sponsors and various causes. The first thing you see in the site is the Hunger cause, but despite what the name suggests, there are some more causes to be clicked there. Oh, and as Care2, it also has petitions to sing and many other stuff (see the side bars), and also an Iphone App (instead of click-to-donate, it’s touch-to-donate)
Bhookh: Simple CtD site of just one cause: Hunger, and more specifically, India’s hunger.
TheBigTest: Now the mechanics change. TheBigTest donates medicine for Diarrhoea through your knowledge, just pick a subject and start answering question, each correct answer equals one teaspoon of medicine.
FreePoverty: In this game you are tested on your knowledge on geography, in this game, our knowledge equals clean water for people who need it. Just locate some places in the map, the better you do the more cups of water you donate (ranging from "Wrong!" to 10 cups)
FreeRice: Like TheBigTest, but with grains of rice(x10), you are given various subjects; you pick one and start answering questions to donate rice. FreeRice has evolved from being almost the same as TheBigTest to a bigger site with more features like their groups and their blog.
As far as I know (or as far as some google searches allow me to know) all this sites are currently working and are legit, but feel free to do your own research
