Abstract

This paper presents the use of mobile applications for charitable donations by linking to various trustable NGOs. The concept of having a mobile application for donating to various NGOs is to make an individual use the application efficiently and to allow them to donate money or items efficiently and effectively. Donating by own is being replaced by a separate NGOs website or they provide their Account number or as such. Hence such mobile applications transform a lot of hard work into smart work. Using the app, an individual can donate money, food, clothes etc and can fill any requirements. By using API software, one can find NGOs which are near to them without having to look for various individual websites or contact information. During those days, people hesitate to donate to various unknown NGOs due to various scams and the consequences of online payment. And most of the people are unaware about the various NGOs providing tremendous projects to increase the welfare of the society. Therefore, the mobile application will save time and money and most importantly energy by providing various lists of NGOs in just one platform. Therefore, mobile applications for donations will link the two platforms which are the NGOs and the donors and will act as a bridge between them directly and thus satisfy both.
