Challenges in Creating a Purpose-Driven Gifting and Donation Platform

The organization aims to eliminate meaningless gifting by enabling users to donate to charities of their choice while ensuring a seamless, trackable, and scalable digital experience. Existing solutions lack integration, user engagement features, and robust data management necessary for growth and impact measurement.

About the Client

A mid-sized non-profit organization seeking to facilitate meaningful charitable giving through a dedicated digital platform, aiming to enhance donor engagement and expand its impact.

Goals for Building an Engaging and Scalable Donation Platform

  • Develop a mobile and web application that facilitates charitable donations directed by recipients to the charity of their choice.
  • Implement geospatial search functionality to enable users to review and select from a large database of charities by name, location, or cause.
  • Integrate a trackable QR code system to link donations with specific transactions and provide transparency.
  • Establish a scalable, secure, and maintainable technology stack supporting growth and diverse user engagement.
  • Enable users to purchase branded products and transact significant charitable donation volumes, with target metrics such as 25,000 downloads, $100,000 in product sales, and $150,000 in donations within the first year.

Core Functional and Technical Capabilities for the Donation Platform

  • User onboarding and account management with personalized dashboards
  • Geospatial charity search with filtering by name, location, or cause
  • Integration with external charity databases for extensive charity listings
  • Custom QR code generator for trackable donations linked to specific transactions
  • Mobile app frontend developed with modern cross-platform frameworks (e.g., React Native)
  • Backend API supporting donation workflows, user management, and data analytics (e.g., ASP.NET backend)
  • Secure payment processing and fund transfer capabilities
  • Database management of user data, transaction records, and charity information (e.g., Postgres)
  • Hosting on a scalable cloud platform (e.g., AWS)

Recommended Technologies and Architectural Approach

ReactNative for cross-platform mobile app development
ASP.NET for backend API development
PostgreSQL database for structured data storage
AWS cloud services for hosting and scalability

Necessary External System Integrations

  • Third-party charity database APIs for charity information
  • Payment gateway integrations for secure transactions
  • Geospatial services for location-based search
  • QR code generation and tracking systems

Performance, Security, and Scalability Expectations

  • Platform should support at least 25,000 downloads in the first year
  • Transaction volume capacity of at least $150,000 in charitable donations within 12 months
  • High availability with minimal downtime, aiming for 99.9% uptime
  • Data security compliance, protecting user and transaction data
  • Fast response times, with page load and search latency under 2 seconds

Projected Business Benefits and Impact of the Donation Platform

The implementation of this platform is expected to significantly enhance charitable engagement, with targeted outcomes including 25,000 downloads, $100,000 in product sales, and $150,000 in charitable donations within the first year. It will foster meaningful giving, improve transaction transparency, and provide a scalable foundation for long-term growth.
