01Problem问题

Young donors want giving that shows real impact, and charities struggle to keep them engaged. Donors rarely know where their money goes, who it reaches, or what it changes. In 2023 the three things that would fix this — a personal impact story for every donor, matching donors to causes, and a way to connect charities — needed AI that could not yet do them well. It can now, so I kept the project.年轻捐款人想要看得见真实影响的捐赠，公益组织却很难留住他们。捐款人很少知道钱去了哪里、帮到了谁、改变了什么。2023 年能解决这些问题的三件事——给每位捐款人一份个性化的影响故事、为捐款人匹配项目、把慈善机构连接起来——都需要当时的 AI 还做不好的能力。现在可以了，所以我留下了这个项目。

06Limits, stated plainly局限，直说

• Nothing has shipped or been measured yet; results will appear here only once they exist.目前还没有上线，也没有测量数据；有了结果才会写在这里。
• The 2024 prototype is a design, not a working app; the 2023 React code was not kept in the repository.2024 年的原型是设计稿，不是可用的应用；2023 年的 React 代码没有保留在仓库里。
