As a life purpose, i always think that contributing back to the community especially to the needy is a must as we should be grateful for our comfortable life we live now!
One of the idea was to create a profit generating business which it’s main objective is to go towards charity! Thus Sarahlist is created, but which domain should we use as main branding going out to public?
Now the headache comes in which domain name to use as main branding?
Anyone who can give me the answer, i will treat him to a japanese lunch!!
4 option that we have include, sarahlist.com, sarahlist.org, sarahlist.com.my and sarahlist.my.
Sarahlist.com is an online buy & sell platform that seeks to empower the disabled communities. We enable everyone to post their unused items, sellable goods, or ads on what they want by category online to match buy & sell needs!
Our goal? To improve the standards of living and financial independence of disabled communities.
How does it work?
All posting of classifieds on sarahlist are free except for 4 categories, which are properties, jobs, cars and seeking partnership section. All free categories would request for a voluntary donations which all profits after cost goes to sarahfund which supports a Cause!
How is it different from Mudah?
Sarahlist’s profits goes majority to charity where it trains the support staff for sarahlist who maybe blind or disable!
With payment of classified ads, it maintains the quality of ads posting which are not spam.
Sarahlist has a foundation formed just for charity purposes and is governed by heavy weight billionaires as advisors to the board.
Additionally, Sarahlist is made up of likeminded, socially-conscious customers. We are able to provide quality ads.
There will be no banner advertising on sarahlist as we are “not in it for the money”

Why call Sarahlist?
It was during one time , Sarah was clearing off her old stuff and found a lot of good to sell furniture and photo frame! She asked Jeffrey Lim where to post to sell off these items? Jeffrey told her to try the newspapers, but per ads cost more than RM80 where the goods sold was worth not more than RM100. In the end, we thought of sending it for charity communities but came difficult part to where to send it and people may not want it. In the end, sarahlist was created to solve both problems, selling off old items to people who need them while doing charity at the same time!
And we had a promise together that 100% of profit for 1st year all goes into charity! Not even one sen left! All to Charity!
