The Facebook-based viral fundraising application ‘Causes’ just released stats for its first year of operation.

  • 12 million users –60,000 of whom Facebook says are daily users
  • Supporting over 80,000 causes
  • $2.5 million donated to 19,445 non-profit organizations

Also worth noting: The organization snagged the URL causes.com, which re-directs to the Facebook app. (That couldn’t have been cheap.)
