Not saying this isn't valuable, but I believe that Google did this a year or two ago: https://onetoday.google.com/ https://onetoday.google.com/
What's the differentiation?
- ISL 12y agoHaven't used the Google app, but it looks like Google may present you with an opportunity to donate once a day, whereas this plan donates by default?
- hgsigala 12y agoI use this EVERY DAY. I get a notification at 9:30am (you can set your own time) telling me about a new organization. I donate about$1 a week and about every other week I will search for tech organizations (example: Helping bolivians connect to the internet) and do a "match" donation of $5. It is great. The notifications display perfectly on my moto 360 too!
- IneffablePigeon 12y agoThat one appears to not work in the UK, for some reason. Unfortunate. Anyone know any alternatives I could use that let me choose which charities I donate to?
- timdierks 12y agoGoogle has a bunch of non-profits, and you are suggested one each day, and can choose to donate to it (or any other). It doesn't pool all One Today users into a single donation recipient per day, and there's no pre-commitment. Dollar a Day looks great, but it basically boils down to you donating to a non-profit that grants to other non-profits and sends you a daily report: they direct the funds and curate the recipients. One Today also has a nice challenge-match feature.
- TeMPOraL 12y agoSince it's the first time ever I saw this thing, apparently Google failed at visibility this time. So there's the differentiation.
- dasboth 12y agoThis looks much more like how I imagined this kind of service to work. Thanks for sharing, shame it's apparently incompatible on my Android device :(
