Another Little Idea – Cause World

Here is a great Little Idea that does not cost anything and you can have some fun with it.  Cause World is an iPhone and Android location checkin app, similar to Foursquare that allows you to earn Karma Points, then donate those points to the charity of your choice and those can be hunger-fighting non-profits or climate change NGO’s to anything else.

You can earn badges and make donations with the points you rack up and you can share your accomplishments with your other social networks if you like.  If you are a location junkie who is short on time or funds and you are passionate about helping fight cancer, stopping child abuse or supplying clean water this app might be for you.  Funding for this endeavour is provided by Procter & Gamble, Kraft Foods and Citibank to the tune of a Million Dollars so far.  You simply checkin to stores to collect sponsor-backed karmas.


One slight problem for all of us in Canada is that this app is not currently available here as far as I can tell.  So in my next post I will make sure to have a Little Idea for all of us in Canada.
