We got the year off to an early start by releasing our interactive Impact Calculator, which garnered mentions on Bloomberg and Gawker; later in the year, we released in-depth write-ups on each of the cause areas our recommended charities work in, making it easier for our audience to understand the work our charities do.

And we’ve prioritized contact with our recommended charities, which will help us coordinate promotional efforts and keep the information on our website accurate and up-to-date.
