Briefly

Bono is a new donation platform founded by Dan Eblagon and Ron Levy, aimed at simplifying the giving process. It allows users to set up monthly donations starting at $5, automatically distributing funds to selected charities based on user interests including climate change and LGBTQ+ rights. Following a $1.6 million pre-seed funding round, Bono is enhancing its user experience with features such as an AI-powered chatbot and a weekly impact report, which informs users about the direct effects of their contributions. The mobile app enhances accessibility and engagement in charitable giving.

To keep users informed, Bono offers a weekly impact report detailing how donations are making a difference.
The platform aims to connect users with vetted charities based on causes they care about, improving the donation experience significantly.
