Hey, you have saved life this week! Thank you!

How David made charity crowdfunding possible?

In Tbilisi (Georgia) there are a lot of non-profits who hire people to walk in metro/subway and asking passengers to donate money to save the life of 3-year-old girl, 2-year-old twins, etc. Recently this kind of charity volunteers became mainstream, they multiplied by dozens which makes passengers sick of them.

People simply do not want to spend money on charity in this way.

It is a problem.

What my friend, David did, he changed the way charity works. He created crowdfunding website — WeHelp, where he provides information (video and medical prescription) about people whose lives will be saved after donating money to them. It’s like KickStarter but in this case there is human life instead of a startup project.

Problem solved: People are donating money to save other people’s lives and there are no annoying volunteers in metro stations. Well, if you ask me this idea works much better than those volunteers, as they raised 4184 Georgian Lari in 4 weeks.

After all it’s great to donate money and get a message afterwards that “Hey, you have saved life this week! Thank you!”
