Following Howard’s blog post on Pinterest exactly one month ago ([Six UK charities using Pinterest already](https://www.fundraising.co.uk/blog/2012/02/20/six-uk-charities-using-pinterest-already)),
several more UK charities joined the new social medium such as Merlin, WWF UK and
Child’s i (already mentioned in the comments of the above blog post).

What is more intriguing at the moment is the innovative ways some UK charities are
using on Pinterest to showcase their cause and engage with their supporters.
