A possible solution


A beta model called SaveLivesTogether (beta name) is in it's initial phases. Without going into much details, this system will create a real time website which will have the following features:

a) Detailed information about the cause ahead of time, with goals, amount of money needed etc.

b) Real time statistics during the operations such as updates and statistical reports , showing how much of the person's money was spent where. Let's say a person donated $10, the report should show $5 spent on food, $2 on medicine, $3 on operational costs etc. This shouldn't be very hard to implement, as one individual's money would be a percentage of the total pool of funds.

c) Live streaming of audio/video from the devastated area.

d) Emergency alerts (i.e. "As reported, AIDS is an issue here, but Malaria is also an issue that we weren't prepared for, we need $x amount of funds immediately to get some vaccine."). People will also be able to see how much of that $x amount is already collected, all real time of course.

This kind of a system will not just get the NAYSAYERS to donate once, but donate over and over again because they will become a part of the system. It'll be the next best thing to actually being there..

Together, we can, inshAllah, make a difference. Maybe, just maybe, you were the one the starved are depending on. Join now and post your comments.

That's true. Naysayers just need an excuse to not donate. No doubt about that. But maybe with this we can get someone who's really got some doubts involved. Hopefully, one day inshAllah.

i strongly agree with the presentation of the statistical data to the donors in order to let them know how and where the money was spent. however, i personally believe that when we dont want to donate then we ask soooooooo many Qs, not only that we refuse to donate we actually discourage others to donate as well by causing doubts in their minds. in fact, each and everyone of us know and relate to a social group who are involved in some sort of charity, instead of mistrusting, we can always donate to any charity organizations that we think are trustworthy. WE SHOULD NEVER HESITATE WHEN IT COMES TO HELP, GO FOR IT AND GRAB THE SAWAAB.
