Fundchange is an initiative of Ideavibes www.ideavibes.com, sponsored by TELUS that enables charities and non-profits to tap into the power of the crowd through social media to make change happen one project at a time. Working to engage a new generation of donors, Fundchange launched in early 2011 focused on projects or doable asks to motivate donors to support change in our community and to share these with their social networks to expand the reach of the great things happening. Charities can sign up at www.fundchange.com.
