Kaioo.com - A Social Network That Helps Charities

Kaioo.com is a social network that gives all of their profit to charities. At Kaioo.com you can create a profile, upload images and videos, meet new people and express yourself. Kaioo.com is like any other social network except at the end of the year 10 charities receive the advertising money from the network. Kaioo.com is a network that takes the social aspect literally. All of the Kaioo.com members can suggest a charity ad create discussion groups that talk about what the charity does. At the end of the year the 10 charities that have received the most votes will receive a donation from the site. Kaioo.com is run by three people and plans on staying a small staff. Kaioo.com is planning on creating a way for visitors and users to donate directly to the site. Join a social network that focuses on the positive and helpful way of being social.

 
  In their own words  

“kaioo is the first REAL Social Community on the Internet, because kaioo is non-profit, democratic and independent:
Non-profit – All advertising money goes to charity!
kaioo offers its users all advantages of a state-of-the art Social Community platform: they can communicate with friends, upload pictures, post videos etc. The key difference is that kaioo donates all advertising revenues to charity, while the operating costs are covered by sponsors. kaioo places only a limited amount of advertising on the site, so there is no disadvantage to using kaioo compared to any other social networking site. Rather, the user benefits from the positive side effect of participating in kaioo: as an accredited non-profit foundation, kaioo donates all the money that the user generates while surfing on the site to charity. Plus, the user increases kaioo’s donating power by spending more time on the platform. In short: users have a good time and at the same time do good!”

  Why it might be a killer  

Kaioo.com is a site and social network that finally focuses on giving back. Kaioo.com is easy to use and navigate. It is great that the users get to choose which charity will receive the advertising money. The site is democratic, which is how social networks should be. Basically Kaioo.com is like any other social network but with a philanthropic perspective.

  Some questions  

Kaioo.com’s web design is pretty basic and boring. The site could use a more dynamic interface. Also the site's set up is very basic, with all of the information located in one place. It is nice when the information is separated into categories. Since Kaioo.com is a non profit focused social network, the site could feature non profit work and internship opportunities. V could have a link to idealist.
