Micro-donation

[citation needed] Micro-donations of $200 or less have made up an ever-larger share of nomination fundraising in the three United States presidential primary elections since 2000.

Micro-donations accounted for 25% of the total donations for the United States presidential election in 2000.

[1][2][3] Microphilanthropy requires the ability to deal with a large number of small interactions efficiently.

If a successful approach also includes implementing a fundraising drive that utilizes microphilanthropic resources connected to a specific charity, the approach must also include a structure or "middleman" technology that allows for an effective, efficient aggregation and distribution of microphilanthropic donations.

[citation needed] For example, the US-based nonprofit Zidisha offers an eBay-style peer-to-peer microlending platform, which uses internet and mobile phone technology to deliver services between lenders and borrowers directly across international borders without local intermediaries.
