Project goals:

This is a simple mashup using Network for Goodâ€™s donation API, with a particular focus on enhancing the donor experience with a virtualization of recent donations. The NFG API mashed-up with a Google map would show all donations made to specific causes (by location) for a given time period over a US or World map. This could be used on the homepage of Network for Good - to inspire others based on the action currently taking place.

Identified Obstacles:

Financial resources to make it happen.
