Google starts one-dollar charity app (16th August, 2013)

Google has started an app for people to give $1 to charities. Its 'One Today' app shows many charities every day. The website says you see different projects and can donate $1 with one click. Most people can give $1. It will soon be worldwide. Google is excited about making the app better. It wants to work with many charities.


 
 

The website said Google has always supported charities. It is happy that One Today makes raising money easy, simple and fun. People can learn more about charities, and share their favourite projects. Google asked people to "do good daily" and help charities be successful. It is amazed by the great work charities do every day.
