Jumo Is The Facebook Of Charities.

But Chris Hughes, Facebook founder and online pioneer, is looking to change that. Mr. Hughes is creating a new social networking site called Jumo, which will allow users to connect to charities and social causes individually, through a series of online profiles. Mr. Hughes insists that Jumo will be different from sites like Facebook Causes and Global Giving in that its primary purpose isn’t to solicit donations. Instead, he’s looking to “organize a network of volunteers into a successful political force and apply them to a much broader universe of causes and issues.” Hopefully, this political force will make its connection monetary as well as symbolic.
