I just noticed under the ‘newest’ tab in the Facebook application directory that**
[GlobalGiving](http://www.globalgiving.com/aboutus/index.html)**, the US nonprofit
which connects donors to grassroots charity projects around the world, is the latest
fundraising organisation to launch a Facebook supporter app (I’ve reviewed some 
of the other key apps in an **[earlier post](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/blogs/bryanmiller/2007/08/24/facebook-fundraising-apps-a-brief-review)**).

Similar to **[Kiva.org](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/blogs/bryanmiller/2007/08/09/kiva-%e2%80%93-an-example-of-online-fundraising-at-its-best)**
and **[DonorsChoose.org](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/blogs/bryanmiller/2007/09/12/donorschooseorg-it-does-what-it-says-on-the-tin-and-its-fantastic)**,
GlobalGiving also uses the social networking power of the internet to enable potential
donors anywhere in the world to find and fund projects of specific interest to them–
offering previously unknown levels of donor choice and involvement.

And as with Kiva and DonorsChoose, there’s lots to be learned from a visit to the**
[GlobalGiving site](http://www.globalgiving.com)** for any organisation looking 
to develop its online fundraising.
