USA Today Online Philanthropy Articles

USA Today has a couple of articles I thought I’d direct your attention to regarding online philanthropy.

This article discusses how the web lets donors find specific needs and fill them. It discusses how hurricane relief is the latest example of a trend in person-to-person philanthropy and how sites like modestneeds.org and donorschoose.org are opening the Internet’s potential to change charitable giving. It also includes giving tips from the ePhilanthropy Foundation.
