I stumbled across this by accident and find it to be very useful: Google Coop
Essentially this is a composition of three tools:
1; create your own personal search engines (without ads even if you are NFP)
2; get personalised preferred partner related results above all other google search results
3; refine search results
The main problem I spotted when using Firefox (my preferred browser) is that the Google Marker (similar to the del.icio.us tagger plug-in) simply does not work. So when you set up your peronalised search engine ensure that you add all the sites that you wish to include in the search for you will be unable to add any sites until the Google Marker is fixed. The issue seems to also affect the feature to add sites when managing the personalised search.
These problems do not occur when using M$ IE.
