Philanthroper.com Charity Shows Concern for Japan in US and Buckhead Atlanta GA
From the Philanthroper.com FAQ - information for ActiveRain members and the public:
What is Philanthroper? "You know those daily deal sites? We're another one of those but instead of selling something, we're sharing the story of a [different] 501(c)3 nonprofit every day. And if you'd like, you can give them $1. We're trying to make doing good a habit."
Why Can I Only Donate $1? "So you can donate another $1 tomorrow. And another the next day. Use Philanthroper daily, and we guarantee, you'll donate more over time than you would have otherwise and it won't put a strain on your bank account. If you're compelled to give a larger donation, fantastic. We always link to [each charity's site. So go for it."
Donate to Philanthroper.com! A small contribution makes a difference. Philanthroper chooses the daily charity by "taking a special interest in non-profits bringing in less than a million a year (or even far, far less than that)."
Your favorite Non-Profit? Philanthroper invites suggestions for daily featured charity.
When I make a donation, I am always concerned about several things:
1. What amount of my donation ACTUALLY goes to the designated charity? Philanthroper will exist on its advertising revenue. Philanthroper takes NONE of the $1. donation. The charity gets 99¢ - one penny goes towards processing the payment.
2. How safe is my financial information and who will have access to my personal information when I make a donation ? Donations to Philanthroper.com are processed via the new payment service, mPayy.com, founded in January 2011. Neither Philanthroper nor the charity receives any personal information. All data is stored by mPayy.com. If a person wants to make a larger donation and goes to the charity's own site, however, the charity would have any personal information given in the donation process.
3. Is my donation tax-deductible and when will the charity receive my donation? Within three to four business days, each Philanthroper nominated charity receives the donation paid into mPayy.com. All Philanthroper nominees have 501(c)3 tax-deductible status. mPayy.com sends reciepts daily. Philanthroper is working on an easier way to consolidate donation information which should be ready before the 2011 tax season.
For Japan, Philanthroper offers several choices, only three of which are shown below.

** Shipping Emergency Medical supplies - $1 will equal $30 in wholesale medical supplies with the non-profit DIRECT RELIEF INTERNATIONAL. Total so far - $714.

** Searching for Survivors - SEARCH DOG FOUNDATION - elite search and rescue dogs looking for survivors. Total so far - $910.

** Emergency Meals from STOP HUNGER NOW - $1 = four meals. Total so far - $655.
