Secure.CC has announced the launch of its GeoWiz 2.0 for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. GeoWiz, which was developed as a fund-raiser for education and charities, dedicates fifty percent of its selling price to non-profit organizations while encouraging students to learn more about our planet and sharpen their geography skills with quizzes that are interesting, fresh and fun.

A comprehensive World Atlas, GeoQuiz - which clearly demonstrates the potential impact of one good idea (it was originally created as a first grade project) - features an interactive slant that allows users to choose the booster club to receive half of the cost of purchase. After launching the game, users can click on a button and choose a booster club to support. If a desired club is not on the list, users have the option of adding it.

"We thought it was important to make it so that users could actually choose which club to support; that really makes GeoWiz not just a unique educational tool but also a product that can be truly customized to match the ideals and preferences of each user," said Ralf Mandt-Rauch, CEO of Secure.CC Ltd. "It's one thing to allow kids to learn while they have fun - that is our goal with GeoWiz, and the astonishing array of awesome geography games and quizzes on this app shows that - but it's quite another to empower folks with the ability to support a booster club of their choice at no extra cost."
