    no mong, it doesn't redirect to google.com
    it's a new program google has started to help end poverty around the world.
    It's about as different from their search engine as you can get.

    Philanthropic?

    It's well known that most big companies hungry for money become "philanthropic" just to minimize taxes impact, not human necessity.
