IT-enabled donation boxes to promote donation

Published:29 October 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

Electronics and information technology have great potential to attract people's attention. In this paper, we describe our use of IT (Information Technology)-enabled donation boxes to promote donations. We implemented four donation boxes, including a colorfully illuminated box and a sensor-enabled interactive box. We put them into actual use in a fundraising activity at Kobe Luminarie and evaluated their effect. Through this activity, we found that IT-enabled donation boxes have the potential to increase donations.
