3,300 charities registered with GiveNow.org
Howard Lake | 30 October 2002 | News
Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) reports that over 3,300 charities have registered with GiveNow.org, its online giving site run in association with AOL UK and AOL Time Warner Foundation.
It makes sense to take up CAF’s offer of a free listing on the site given that it is being promoted to AOL UK’s large customer base as its preferred charitable giving Web site.
Yet not all charities are making full use of the facilities available. For example,
only around 1,300 have posting their enhanced profiles online, with a similar number adding Web addresses to link to their own sites.

Even fewer charities, just over 300, regularly post their news on the site, with an average of 10 new stories posted online every day. As such, many charities are missing the chance to promote their news and fundraising appeals at no cost to a large audience.
