Empowering the Charitable Sector with Interactive Technologies II
15th September, LBi London
Robert Tolmach talks to us about how Changing the Present hopes to give non-profits a chunk of the $250 billion US gift market, and why giving charitable gifts on Facebook is much more rewarding than throwing sheep.
Browsing the web for news, I came across this story about charities in the UK:
http://www.itpro.co.uk/news/108014/charities-told-to-use-web-better.html
It comes from a conference sponsored by British non-profiteers. Notable quotes include:
"We are entering an age of participative media where anybody with access to a computer has the potential to contribute in a unique and valuable way," Dame Suzi Leather, chair of the Charity Commission. "The challenge for charities is to harness this potential and channel it into genuine social change and community action on the ground."
