Google Glass project tackles poverty, other real world problems

[Youbetternot]

Oh Google is doing something good this time? It seems that Google is partnering with five other non-profit organizations. Well Google is only giving Google glass to few groups to use for their work and making life better. However I am not sure rather the poor people will use the Glass or just the workers. I think this is pretty cool Google is reaching out to people and giving stuff away. 

It has flown over San Francisco, adorned the faces of runway models and most recently taken a road trip across the US. Now Google's already iconic wearable computer is taking a more altruistic journey with five non-profit organizations. Starting today, a small selection of Google Giving partners will begin using Glass to help them achieve their organizations' missions and "tackle some complex challenges." It's unclear exactly what the groups will do with Glass, but Google says they will use the device in their daily work to "bring more transparency to philanthropy, and close the gap between donors and the people they support." Participating organizations include The World Wildlife Fund; Samasource, which offers enterprise data services to poor women and youth; Give Directly, an organization with a web-based solution for connecting donors to individual households in Kenya; the all-purpose youth-focused Do Something!; and charity: water, which concentrates on clean water initiatives.
