There are plenty of websites that connect people to people, people to information and people to products, but the aim of Jumo.com is to [link the public to charities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charityexplorer) as a means to raise awareness and funds for a plethora of desperate causes.

At the Mashable and 92Y Social Good Summit, [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/user-first-social-media) co-founder Chris Hughes spoke, communicating his ideas for Jumo.com as a medium to market altruism through social media. Compared to Facebook Pages, Jumo.com should succeed in better educating users about various causes, in addition to providing the means to make [online donations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-powered-fundraising-platform).
