There is a really interesting online community called TakePart (yes, it’s one word) that I found to be very interesting.
Everyone can help change the world for the better, one step at a time. Whether it’s voting for a favorite charity to receive funding, volunteering time, donating, or telling friends, everyone can take a small step and start making a difference.
On the web site you can find a huge variety of causes and organizations that need your help. Whether your into Environmental issues, Animal Welfare, Politics, Education, Crime or about a half dozen other topics, you are sure to find many organizations that could use your help.
TakePart encourages people to take action about the things they are truly passionate about. If you feel passionate about Human Rights, or if you want to help raise awareness about a Poverty and Social Welfare, TakePart can point you in the right direction.
TakePart feature actions addressing issues such as food safety, world health, homelessness and more. Their aim is to provide the resources needed to motivate change.
TakePart also wants people to know that whether you have five minutes or a few hours, there is SOMETHING you can do to help make our world a better place for everyone. It can be as simple as the click of a mouse to vote for an organization to get some grant money, to offering to volunteer for a couple of hours. You can even donate to the causes that are most near and dear to your heart. It’s totally up to you. TakePart wants you to take action, big or small, instead of sitting by idle and doing nothing in hopes that others will.

Every three months, five new charities will receive funding from American Express, but they need your help deciding who to give it to. They are asking for people to rally behind the charities of their choice and vote.
