iDonAid.org: Welcome at "The case of idonaid.org"
http://idonaid.blogspot.com/2009/12/welcome-at-case-of-idonaidorg.html
Welcome at "The case of idonaid.org". Mid 2009 four Belgian software developers saw a chance to offer charity organizations an alternative way of fundraising. To accomplish this they founded the non-profit organization "iDonAid". Facilitating the fundraising efforts of humanitarian organizations. This resulted in the iDonAid system and the first fully developed App called "Damien" which was rejected by Apple mid November 2009. The problem with e-donations. From opportunity to idea. The first iDonAid App.

iDonAid.org: How Apple could change its charity application policy
http://idonaid.blogspot.com/2009/12/how-apple-could-change-its-charity.html
How Apple could change its charity application policy. The approval procedure in general is under extreme pressure from the developer community. It is time for change…. Apple is not making itself very popular in banning charity apps from its store. It is actually very discriminatory to exclude charity organizations from benefitting from the AppStore. [I even wonder if there is a the legal basis for this ban…]. What if Unicef asked Apple to publish an App? This is what Apple could do to solve the problem:.

http://idonaid.blogspot.com/2009/12/getting-cleared-precondition-for.html
Getting cleared: precondition for selling the idea. In order to develop our plans we needed a legal structure. We choose for a "VZW" which is the structure of a non-profit organization according to Belgian law. Next task was to make a shortlist of charities we would approach to join our system. We made use of donorinfo.be. Which is a Belgian charity watchdog. This collaboration worked in 2 directions:. We were able to make a shortlist of 3 good reliable humanitarian causes we would love to develop for.

From opportunity to idea. Worldwide mobile internet is on the rise. The booming market of smart phones and mobile computing creates new opportunities for charities. Even in countries with very low internet penetration, mobile internet coverage is about to explode. Up to this date these opportunities have been underused that's why we stepped in with iDonAid.

http://idonaid.blogspot.com/2009/12/rejection-by-apple.html
The rejection by Apple…. The rejection of the Damien app can be regarded as a storybook Apple rejection episode. The Application (posted on Nov 4) seemed to be stuck in the rejection process until we received a message (Nov 19) from Apple with the request to get in touch with an Apple staff member named Richard Chipman. We realized this was bad news and I was prepared for the worst when I gave Richard Chipman from Apple a call. Mr. Chipman gave the Apple verdict: REJECTED. Phone conversation with Apple.

iDonAid.org: Analysis: the problem with e-donations
http://idonaid.blogspot.com/2009/12/analysis-problem-with-e-donations.html
Analysis: the problem with e-donations. Financial crises shows no mercy. Charity organizations are also facing the consequences. Unfortunately the first to stop funding charity organizations are the big corporate sponsors. That's why charities have to fall back on the help of individuals: you and me, ordinary people that have a lot of empathy and realize that in difficult times the weakest are always the first victims and need support more then ever. The biggest hurtle here is the payment procedure. ...
