JUMO

JUMO I just watched an interview with its founder, Chris Hughes, on the Colbert Report and it seemed like an omen.  I had been talking earlier today to a dear friend about wanting to find good organizations to volunteer with.  Even if you don't have the time to do much vonlunteering, it may still be worth signing up, you can stay informed about the causes that interest you.  Check it out!

I'm pasting a portion of their About Us section below:

Why Jumo?

Founded in February 2010, Jumo set out to address three key challenges:

• There are millions of people working to improve the lives of others, many of whom lack the resources to have greatest impact.
• There are millions more who want to help, but don’t know how.
• Despite huge advancements in connection technologies, it’s hard to find meaningful opportunities to get involved.

We believe we can do better.

What we do

Jumo makes it easy to:

• Find the issues and organization you care about
• Follow the latest news and updates
• Support their work with your time, money and skills.

Together we can speed the pace of global change.
