GiveCorps Baltimore launched in early July 2011.

GiveCorps is a web-based platform for donors to support projects in their communities and schools, and to get discounts from local merchants in return. GiveCorps uses the power of Crowdfunding to raise money for local causes on a city-by-city basis.

GiveCorps' mission is to nurture an online community where people find their passion to GIVE, local nonprofits find their CORPS supporters and local merchants reward donors for their generosity.

GiveCorps seeks to become one of the largest philanthropic vehicles each year by highlighting compelling local projects that inspire at least 500 citizens daily to donate $25 to make a difference in their city.

GiveCorps' founders  identified a need to connect nonprofit organizations with new donors, especially Generation Y donors, in the local community thereby broadening the donor pool and helping local nonprofits.
