ACT-SOCIAL is a non-profit website that aims at the propagation of volunteering
and donation in order to help the resolution of environmental, social, economic
issues that plague the world.
ACT-SOCIAL approaches volunteerism in a new way: the technology of social network.
ACT-SOCIAL solves the volunteerism issue to the degree that there is an easy and
instant way to request and offer sensible help. The challenge is to develop a Global
Partnership for Development and in cooperation with the private sector, make available
the benefits of new technologies, especially information and communications, with
a view of solving intensive problems such as hunger, poverty, illnesses, illiteracy,
education, gender inequality and unequal access to the know-how.
At ACT-SOCIAL, any citizen or Non Governmental Organization can connect for free
and get informed about the “events” where they can participate and about the coming
results. An event can be a donation or a volunteering work at the user’s hometown,
or even a philanthropic gala at the other end of the world. All the citizens and
the organizations can publish an event by creating an event profile, in order to
inform, ask for support and find participators. In addition, the users are free
to create or join any group to communicate with others.
Users can appreciate all the services of ACT-SOCIAL: personal messages, upload of
photos and videos, sms, notification services and RSS in their mobile phone and
blog creation.
It is worth mentioning that ACT-SOCIAL does not aim to profit. Our purpose is to
inform about environmental, social, and economic issues, to assist in finding a
solution for the aforementioned issues, to create and develop a dynamic community
with primary goal the resolution of the respective matters.
