Social explorers : a smartphone application informing about nonprofits activities and allowing personal or sponsored donations

Abstract

In order to draw the general and specific objectives of the present document, the team first identified a set of problems, that would be later defined as market gaps. It was revealed that there is a lack of effectiveness in the communication of large and smaller size nonprofit organizations. Most of them owns a private website aimed at displaying content and information, communicating around emergencies and asking for donations. But, for a potential donator willing to be more informed about associations in general, and maybe to donate some of its private money, it is considered complicated, time consuming and sometimes frightening to understand which association to select and to trust.
