FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

18 YEAR-OLDS PLEDGE TO MAKE CHARITY-GIVING EASIER
Charity comparison website helps you choose who to give to in these difficult times

‘WHICH CHARITY’ is a new website created by a group of determined eighteen year olds, in order to benefit the vast diversity of charities, and the ever increasing charity-givers. The website features a ‘Find a Charity’ system, where users can complete a short form based on their interests of who they want to donate to and how they wish to pursue this.

Users will find this website easy to use and very friendly, making the often difficult choice of deciding which charity to give to a real breeze. There is a comments system through which anyone can provide more information about a charity’s work, or perhaps about their own experience of giving to that charity. This, combined with a random generator that features on the home page, makes even the most indecisive person decide with ease. Which Charity give no preference to charity, whether big or small, and an important emphasis by the team is the facilities on their site that provide free advertisement for any UK or International charity.

The Which Charity team also believe that the website can help charity-givers during the economic crisis. “For those keen donors, who give to five or so charities throughout the course of a single year, but are now finding that they will have to give to perhaps only two of those, the choice may be devilishly hard,” explains Louise Sopher, Creator of Which Charity. “‘Which Charity’ allows those people to look more specifically at what each of the charities do. They can choose to give to the charity that is the least visited on the site; alternatively, they could give to the most visited, or the one whose categories match most of their preferences. They could even look at the ‘ways to give’ section and trade donating money for volunteering!”

The ‘Which Charity’ team intend the website to provide as much help as is possible to charity-givers confused with so many choices and they are keen to think of new facilities that will benefit more people as the website grows.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The ‘Which Charity’ website was created in 2008 by dedicated 17 and 18 year-olds in order to create a way in which people can give to who they want to give to, in the way that they feel is most fulfilling. The website also aims to allow a space for the smaller, lesser known charities to be found, without undermining the work of bigger charities.

For further information, please visit the ‘Which Charity’ website at: www.whichcharity.org. In addition, the ‘news’ page of the site links to the ‘Which Charity’ blog and the ‘about’ page features more information about the website, as well as a promotional video.

The notes for a video, which quickly formed the article of the previous post – ‘Finders-Keepers’ have been used and made into the video as was intended. This video can be seen by clicking the link below:

We Are Humans

It is probably best to watch it in relation to the ‘Finders-Keepers’ article, however I would be grateful to hear your comments about what you think of it, or whether it should be judged entirely separately to the article. Please feel free to post your comments on this blog or on the video hosting site, motionbox.

Please be aware that due to the cost of purchasing royalty free audio and video which correctly matches the need of this presentation, much of the audio included, as well as many of the video clips used, have not been made by myself or any member of the Which Charity team.

For this reason the video is not, and unless the audio and the necessary video clips are changed, available on the Which Charity YouTube channel, and we do not claim it to be directly connected to Which Charity.

The idea, however, combined with the sound effects, wording, and a few of the video clips, are completely original. Images that are not my own have been purchased from royalty free sites. The video, made with MAGIX software,  is also available on my personal YouTube account, however this is without the audio track.
