Chipin.com - an easy way to raise money for good causes
Saturday, October 25th, 2008 | E-commerce |
I just found out about Chipin.com. It’s a bloggish Web application for raising money.
Tom Geisler emailed a note from one of his former students whose daughter is in the hospital. You can see her page at Cora’s Medical Bills. Donations are made via PayPal. The RSS feed tracks donations and totals, which helps keep the process transparent. There’s also a widget tool so other Web sites can add an announcement like the one below to help publicize the effort.
ChipIn seems like a smart way to use the Web 2.0 for good causes.
