Why We Exist

CharityPie makes it easier for you to manage your charitable giving.

We believe that by making it easier to control where you give your money,

people will give more money in total to charity.

How We Do It• Simple– Single Point of Contact and donation– “Pie”: visual aggregation of all your donations making it

easy to see and change where you give– Simplify research into charities

• Social– See where your friends are giving– Make it easy to donate to “causes”

• Effective– See the effects that your donations have made– Make the tax and matching process easier

The Users• Focus on two types of users• Current one-off donors– Transition them into regular donors– Ease fears of loss of control

• Current regular donors– Simplify management and redistribution– Increase control
