Charity Donation Matching Service
Donating to charity is a Good Thing™. Even better than donating to charity alone is donating to charity whilst incentivising others to do it too...
Enter donation matching. Currently if you want to set up a donation matching fund, the process is to either contact a charitable organisation directly or set up a fund yourself with all the associated management and trust issues. The reality of which is that donation matching is only feasible for very large sums of money (100k+).
The goal of this project is to create a service for creating and contributing to matching funds for everyone.
