The new One App, created by the ONE.org, was recently released and hopes to raise awareness regarding poverty and the abuse of women and children in developing nations. The One App is based on the concept of digital advocacy and is not looking for users to donate money, but to help raise awareness through the smartphone app.
The One App has five different components, including Blog, Latest, Proof, Connect and More. These sections provide facts, statistics, updates on social good projects currently underway and a section where these can then be shared. The One App also advertises and promotes other agencies similar to ONE.org, where activists can become involved or make a donation to another charity or organization. The One App is currently only available for phones in the United States.
