Beth Kanter and Michele Martin win America's Giving Challenge
Our own NpTech Tag Summary blogger, Beth Kanter, along with Michele Martin, came in first
place for global causes in America's Giving Challenge. The Challenge was sponsored by the Case Foundation.
The 8 individual online fundraisers who inspired the most people to donate, received $50,000 for their charity, in addition to the money they raised during the Challenge.
Beth and Michele raised $41,673 and received 1,650 donations for the Sharing Foundation.
You can read through Beth's online diary of the process on Beth's Blog.
