Where eBay introduces "buyers" and "sellers", the PDO charity transaction platform introduces "donors" and "recipients"… thereby eliminating the "middle man" cost center of traditional charity and government administered social welfare programs. American families with children living near or below the poverty line only need to access a single PDO online interface to manage social welfare benefits such as healthcare, daycare, rent assistance, utility assistance, food assistance, etc. ( http://tigurl.org/swfxcp ) PDO has design endorsements from companies, organizations or individuals including Craigslist Foundation, Google, The Riverside Church of New York, The National Black United Fund, Robinhood, The Creative Vision Foundation, Ashoka, Grassroots.org, The Acumen Fund, and more... PDO Donor Portal: PDO enables donors to search a database of children that have been certified by PDO as living near or below the poverty line then immediately make direct donations to all of the child's social welfare needs such as healthcare, daycare, rent assistance, utility assistance, food assistance and much more via a simple-to-use shopping cart function. For example, A "Virtual-Dad" (donor) can make sure his "Virtual-Daughter" (recipient) has a warm place to live during the winter months, simply by using PDO to access the actual gas bill of his "virtual daughter's" home and helping to pay the bill with a tax deductible donation via the PDO charity transaction platform. Test drive the online prototype of the PDO charity transaction platform at http://tigurl.org/jbweib PDO Recipient Portal: The Recipient portal is designed from the point of view of a 16 year old, single mother with a low level of literacy. The interface is graphical and audible so that recipients with low literacy levels can simply click a picture or even listen to instructions. The Recipient portal's simplistic, but intuitive design is meant to bridge the illiteracy component of the Digital Divide. Not only does the portal provide much needed subsistence support for those in poverty, but it also empowers them to improve their own lives by teaching them financial literacy, personal organization, and empowering them to effect positive change around them through volunteering PDO certified charities. The Good Deeds Account removes the "Steal or Starve" mentality forced upon many extremely impoverished Recipients by providing them an actual means to create positive change –AND- simultaneously attain subsistence level products and services. Social Benefit: PDO's incentive based social welfare program "Oneness Points" (a combination of "health" & "eco" points) acts as a three directional financial incentive system for donors, recipients, and corporate partners to behave in healthy and environmentally friendly ways. Oneness Points embody PDO's goal of brining the human industrial complex & consumer market behavior back in line with the Earth's eco system and thereby create greener & healthier society. Financial incentive based social welfare programs, such as PDO's, have offline predecessors in nine 9 countries across the globe; originating with Mexico's "Progressa", which was started by the government of Mexico in 1997. The most recent variation of "Progressa" is Opportunity NYC an incentive based social welfare program started in June 2007 in conjunction with Mayor Bloomberg's CEO (Center for Economic Opportunity) with an operational endowment of $53 million usd. PDO Charity Transaction Platform Technology: PDO's functional design is based upon already existent technology in the consumer market, therefore through a series of strategic partnerships and alliances the technology behind PDO will be combined to create the charity transaction platform in a neutral open-source environment. Poverty's Demise .Org (PDO) is the original design of Darryl Penrice
