Giveo.com - Online Philanthropy Network

Giveo is an online philanthropy designed to link worthy causes and potential donators. The site represents both sides of philanthropy, via the “Give” and “Receive” links.

Visitors may either choose to help posted causes, or create an account for their own cause. Site users that wish to donate may filter posted causes to find organizations and projects that have various needs, or simply browse the list of existing causes. Potential donators are also free to post additional questions and comments about a posted cause. Organizations interested in receiving donations and interacting with potential givers may create a free account may do so in a few steps.

Giveo is a network potentially full of opportunities for those interested in participating in philanthropy. The concept of bringing organizations in need and potential philanthropic donators together in a free forum is a solid foundation. However, there are currently only 16 causes posted, and of those, some of which are people posting to have donations to pay off their personal debt. Posts such as these may turn off potential donators, and make the site seem illegitimate. If the site were to be properly managed, it has the potential and foundation to succeed.

What measures can Giveo have to ensure that posted causes are legitimate? What partnerships with other grassroots philanthropies can be explored to grow the network? Could online social networks be joined with to further increase reach?
