<p>iGivefirst was started by a group of people from the Denver area who wanted to use their technology chops to do some good. We looked around and saw some pretty important parts of our lives had been disrupted by the Internet. Music. Movies. Communications. Shopping. You get the idea.</p><p>Surprisingly, all of these advances of technology had not touched charitable giving. Individual charities solicited individual donations by mail, by email, by phone or on television. This seemed like a pretty antiquated way of raising money. So we built a very sophisticated charitable giving platform that lets you easily contribute to worthwhile causes in your neighborhood and around the globe. We’re proud to say we’ve engineered a service that gets your donations to these organizations safely and efficiently. Making the world a more charitable place is a pretty big idea. We’d like to be a part of making it happen.</p>
