Challenge Description:
The goal of this challenge is to design the gamified aspect of Share the Give app, the gamified aspect will be predicated on the platform's point system, and act as a visual representation of the platform's "Karma Point" system. Points accumulated through using the app (i.e. making donations, signing petitions, setting up challenges, etc.) become in-app resources for this component of the platform, essentially giving high-traffic users more content and access while providing a visual manifestation of user behavior.
This model creates a virtual environment that depicts the inter-related interests of donors and allows users to visually represent their philanthropic identity.
Philanthropic villages will improve the application's user experience - tapping into a popular game format that has produced immensely successful OS game enterprises - and will provide yet another push notification opportunity to get users to engage with the application.
We are looking for the [topcoder] design Community to help us with planning our new "user experience" (UX).
