Craig Newmark of Craigslist Launches Craigconnects To Aid Nonprofits

Craig Newmark, founder of Craigslist, has embarked on a new endeavor: craigconnect, a site that harnesses the power of the Internet to aid nonprofits organizations.

*Craigconnects is about calling attention to and connecting good, effective nonprofits and other organizations that get the job done.
*Craigconnects is also about protecting organizations, and the public, from fake organizations that have a good story, but actually end up hurting the people they profess to serve.

It’s an ambitious mission (as outlined in his video welcome message and in further detail on the Purpose of craigconnect.) Luckily, Newmark knows a thing or two about building a website that connects people and organizations to one another.
