One4All exists to turn casual givers into active givers. One4all believes that the majority of the 230M Americans who give each year, view giving as a transaction instead of an experience. This has left a gap in philanthropy between intent and action.More importantly, it’s left millions of people leaning forward with the desire to do moreand give more.One4All is launching a digital platform that brings together the world of social good and orbits it around the individual giver’s giving account. One4All enables anyone to say (and feel) that they are a philanthropist. | $625K / Seed / Oct 01, 2012 |
