Charitable-Organizations.org - Website Review



Introduction

Charity as one of the distinctive human virtues has been practiced since time in memorial. Whether it is individual or group support to the needy, the effect is always invaluable thus the need to have a proper listing of such philanthropic groups online. While it is true that there are hundreds of online directories covering different niches, the non-profit organizations have not been so much represented. In addition, even the few relevant directories available aren’t as organized as other online listings. It is therefore correct to mention that the creation of well organized website particularly for charitable and other non-profits groups was long overdue. Consequently, an expanding website has been created based on credible online directory’s standards. From the name (Charity Collector – Charitable and Non Profit Organization List) to design, the site promises clarity and ease of navigation.

Site’s Intent and Purpose

In line with the site’s name, its main purpose is to create a reliable, easy use but detailed list of charitable and other non-profit organizations with the aim of marketing them as well as enabling them to receive online donation. The other objective of the site is to help the charity organizations to advertise volunteer jobs. As mentioned earlier, the design is tailored towards simplicity and ease of use in addition to an appealing color scheme as is visible in the site’s major sections (i.e. Home, Categories, Contact Us and Blog). 

The availability of an Ads section makes this list of NGOs to be the best, in that it gives the members an opportunity to advertise their volunteer jobs in addition to the publicity they enjoy. Blogging and commenting are also permitted for registered members.

Site Components and ease of use

Apart from social media interrelation and the fact that the site uses the Classified Ads Software (Classipress), it has a more direct and simple registration procedure. For those interested in registering only need to provide their preferred username and a valid email address. Upon verification, the new member is ready to post their Ads or Post a charity using the corresponding button at the top of the site. 

Other subsections such as Top Charitable Organization (Ranking listed Charity by number of views received), Recent charity Posts (showing the recent blog topics) and Recent Comments all add to the informative and effective nature of the site. For firsthand experience with this engaging site, one can click here and either register to comment, post a charity or even donate to a charity organization  of choice from the many listed.
