http://newinternetorder.com/giving-back-to-the-community/ 1/8
Here’s an important life lesson: no matter how
tough you think your life is there’s always
someone who has to face challenges that are
even tougher than yours.
And it goes in many different directions. Not
only basic things like making money, getting
food, or having a place to rest at night, but also
the possibility of taking part in some entrepreneurial projects or getting proper
education.
For most people in the US, Europe, East Asia, etc. these things are much less
challenging. With the internet at hand we can take part in almost any project
imaginable, compile a team of people of different professions and talents, and
start immediately.
We can get a coffee at Starbucks, or a steak at the nearest steakhouse, and so
on. But what would you do without electricity or a place to buy some clothes, not
to mention getting a computer with internet access?

http://newinternetorder.com/giving-back-to-the-community/ 2/8
And I’m not talking about giving back in terms of “offering a cheap product,” or
“doing something for free in exchange for advertising space.” This isn’t giving
back. This is simply business.
Giving back is where you give, and then nothing happens. No benefits for you, no
recognition, nothing tangible gets sent your way. Your biggest and sole reward is
the realization that you’ve made a significant change in someone’s life. And if
not “significant” then a positive change nevertheless.
This post is not designed to help you make your business grow
(http://newinternetorder.com/how-to-set-up-an-online-business/), but it will
help you grow as a human being and make a lot of other people happy if you
decide to take action on the advice here.
Giving back is among the most important and valuable things an
entrepreneur can do. Period.

What follows is a list of online charities of different types that make it possible
for you to help others live a better life and even start their own entrepreneurial
projects.
(If you run, or are a part of any foundation yourself you can search for a charity database
(http://www.blackbaud.co.uk/) to find ways they can help your foundation run more
effectively and reach more success (http://newinternetorder.com/do-the-hard-things/).)
1. DonorsChoose.org
http://www.donorschoose.org/ (http://www.donorschoose.org/)
I’ve been a member of DonorsChoose for quite a long time now, and it’s my
favorite online charity. Here you can help classrooms from all around America.
The rules are simple as with every online charity. You start by selecting a project
you want to help, decide on the amount you want to send, transfer your money
… and that’s basically it.
No matter what amount of money you end up donating you get full
transparency and feedback from the site. You know where your money is going
to and what the result of the project you’ve decided to help is. DonorsChoose even
provides photos of projects taking place, and you might also get some teacher
and student letters.

The idea of this kind of help for public schools around the US was born in one of
Bronx’s high schools where teachers were experiencing the scarcity of learning
materials. One of the social (http://newinternetorder.com/giveaway-heres-why-
social-share-counters-suck-plus-what-i-can-give-you-that-doesnt/) studies
teachers – Charles Best – decided to create the site sensing that many people
understand this problem and would like to help distressed public schools.
2. Kiva
http://www.kiva.org/ (http://www.kiva.org/)
Kiva isn’t a charity strictly speaking. Kiva is an online loan platform. After
signing up for an account you get to help other entrepreneurs around the world
by lending them small amounts of money. Even though most projects require
large sums to get off the ground your help still counts because your loan gets
combined with what other people have sent, so in the end, every project can be
fully funded, and then carried out.
At Kiva you will find projects to choose in many different sectors. Just to name a
few: agriculture, arts, clothing, education, health, manufacturing, retail,
services, and more.

The way Kiva works is actually pretty simple. I think it’s best if you just watch

Other Charities and Fundraising
Communities
This is where my personal experience ends. I’m only the member of DonorsChoose
and Kiva. But there are a lot more places where you can go to help people.
I really encourage you to do so, and read a word or two about each of these sites
before deciding which ones you want to become a member of. Here’s a list of
additional places worth checking out:
Causes (http://www.causes.com/). Said to be the world’s largest platform for
activism and philanthropy.
Network for Good (http://www1.networkforgood.org/). A website for anyone
who wants to give and volunteer over the internet without leaving their
homes.
Razoo (http://www.razoo.com/). A place for donors to easily find a cause to
support. Also a place to start raising money for worthwhile causes.
Charity Navigator (http://www.charitynavigator.org/). Donating through
Charity Navigator is a way of making sure that your money goes exactly where

Advice, tutorials, tools, case studies
you want it to go.
Freerice.com (http://freerice.com/). This is a simple online game in which
you’re answering some questions, and whenever you get the answer right 10
grains of rice get donated on your behalf to the United Nations World Food
Program. A very cool thing.
That’s all I have for this short post on online charities, fundraising, and giving
back. I have only one advice to give you now. Visit the sites above and choose
one that speaks to you the best. Start by donating a small amount of money,
and see how great it is to help others. In the end, this is what money is meant to
do – improve people’s lives.
