Challenge 11

Challenge: Explore any site from the Web 2.0 awards list, play with it, and write a blog post about your findings.

I went to the Web 2.0 site and clicked on "Philanthrophy" under the Awards Categories.

There weren't enough nominations to warrant a winner in the category, though it did list an Honorable Mention called http://givemeaning.com/

I felt that the website was a great way for people to set up fundraisers easily and get the word out fast. There were many sites for walking for AIDS or stairclimbing for cancer.

I sent the website address to a colleague, as she supervises zoo teens that are raising funds to purchase bulletproof/stabproof vests for police dogs as part of the vestadog project.
