DonateNZ – The “Who”, “How” and “Why”

Claire is a friend of mine who, along with her family, has put almost everything into getting DonateNZ off the ground. DonateNZ is a charity that runs a website that connects people with something to donate and needy organisations who can make use of that something.

Her latest blog post is an explanation of what they’ve gone through to get it where it is today, and what they struggle with. Well worth a read, and a great cause to support.
