Philanthropy - San Francisco, California, United States
Are you a connoisseur of custom coinage? A proponent of priceless pesos? We are RedditDiamond, the latest evolution in gilding technology. Proudly the most unconventional philanthropy to ever philanthropize. Our system, invented by Gregory Grande, but more importantly, conceptualized and painstakingly brought to life by /u/PatrioTech and /u/cmcjacob is designed to change the way we think about charitable donation on the internet. Since the invention of charity many thousand some-odd years ago, people have been donating "in the name of" friends, loved ones, or teachers. This has always been on a grand scale -- a gesture of extravagance. Our system is this same kindness scaled down sevenfold. The concept is simple. There are countless occurrences each day where users go above and beyond their call to dank memes and Rick Astley. Whether it's painstakingly producing several paragraphs of personalized advice on /r/PersonalFinance or crafting a HighQualityGif of cinematic excellence, these gems are destined to be gilded – an imaginary coin designed as a heartfelt thank-you from the consumer, moved so strongly they feel the need to throw their money to prove it. RedditDiamond takes this one step further, providing the infrastructure to gild by donation to any charity around the world (local, national, or international). RedditDiamond is gilding: for a cause. Reddit.com sees upwards of 1.69 billion users per month. If RedditDiamond engages only 0.1% of this userbase 2 times per year at the minimum donation amount ($1), worthy charities could see an additional $3,380,000 per year.(This is not an official subsidiary of Reddit, Inc. and do not process any charitable donations.)
