Teaching Philanthropy to the Next Generation

Three months ago Children’s Hospital Boston launched an innovative web site for children called Generation Cures. According to this story,

Generation Cures teaches kids about the importance of caring and giving through free, original digital content including interactive games, animated cartoons and kid-directed videos. At the same time, the site raises vital pediatric research funds to find cures for sick kids worldwide.

In the three months it has operated, Generation Cures has won 8 different awards from philanthropic and web-design organizations. I took a look, and I’ve got to agree that the site is pretty darn cool.
