Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) reports that over 3,300 charities have registered
with GiveNow.org, its online giving site run in association with AOL UK and AOL 
Time Warner Foundation.
It makes sense to take up CAF’s offer of a free listing 
on the site given that it is being promoted to AOL UK’s large customer base as its
preferred charitable giving Web site.

Yet not all charities are making full use of the facilities available. For example,

only around 1,300 have posting their enhanced profiles online, with a similar number
adding Web addresses to link to their own sites.

Even fewer charities, just over 300, regularly post their news on the site, with
an average of 10 new stories posted online every day. As such, many charities are
missing the chance to promote their news and fundraising appeals at no cost to a
large audience.
