Social Charity Network (SCN)
This article presents my idea for developing a global Social Charity Network (SCN), a platform that connects Donors, Charity Organizations and Volunteers with the underprivileged families across the world. I hope that this idea will be adopted by government officials, charity organizations leaders or corporates executives to sponsor it, raise fund to finance the development activities and obtain the necessary legal approvals to kick off the initiative
Why this is important?
With the current COVID-19 crises, the poverty and number of underprivileged families will drastically increase and there is a need to connect the Donors, charity orgs and volunteers with those families via less expensive media and this is the role of the SCN. It will help the charity organizations and individuals to create underprivileged families profiles and expose their needs over the SCN

Objectives of this Social Charity Network
This should enable individuals, corporates or charity organizations to:
- Select their donations categories and locations
- View underprivileged families profiles with proper respect to their privacy
- Track their donations via donations dashboards and online reporting
- Connect with other Donors and Volunteers and contribute to social charity campaigns and causes
- Stimulate charity work and recognize top donors and volunteers activities
Note: This network doesn't have a payment gateway and donations should be paid directly from donors to categories in need or via authorized charity organizations

4 年Great initiative Ehab Hafez. Have you considered the possibility of using blockchain to ensure integrity of the network and track how each donor payments are utilized. That’s a concern generally donors when donating.
