GiveForward Nominated for World Technology Award

GiveForward is honored to announce that we have recently been nominated for a World Technology Award for our innovative method of online fundraising for medical expenses.  The award, presented by the World Technology Network in association with Time and CNN, is given to “outstanding innovators within the science and technology arena for innovative work of the greatest likely long-term significance.”  Previous award recipients have included Bill Clinton, Muhammad Yunus, and Jacqueline Novogratz. 

The awards have been given out since 2000 and seek to “encourage serendipity by bringing key players together from the world’s leading corporations to the world’s newest start-ups [that help] to make things happen sooner and better than they might have.”  GiveForward has been nominated in the finance category and the results will be announced at the World Technology Summit in New York City in late June.
