The winning team from the recent Auckland leg of the ‘start-up weekend‘ came up with a brilliant idea that made us all smile here @ glocal.

We caught up with one of the members from the winning team….

In Robin Singh’s own words;

smile today, is a crowd sourcing, funding/donation website which is going to bridge the gap between donors and charities/causes and reduce the cost on the commissions charities pay to other organizations. The other aspect of our website is that u just dont donate money but donate smiles and u spread happiness and feel more connected with the charity than just sending money and we have a action plan where your social network if thy also donate through your fb/twitter link u get notification that your smile donation is contagious in a happy way. u helped raised so and so money and added this many smiles and a smile back from the charity ..
On startup weekend we got awarded for our concept and execution  (http://auckland.startupweekend.org/)

Good on you team ‘smile today’ we love to see a bunch of talented locals going global… that’s glocal!
