A Whole New Way to Give and Participate in Social Good!

LONDON, March 21, 2011 - Buzzbnk, the social venture crowd-funding platform, has today extended
its fund-raising options by launching its first gift vouchers for social
enterprise projects.

The gift vouchers and certificates - available from GBP5 - offer another
model to fund and support social enterprise, targeting a range of projects
large and small.

Funders can now use gift certificates to support projects from ColaLife,
an organisation pioneering medicine distribution in Africa using empty space
in cola crates (www.buzzbnk.org/colalife ), to 'Save the Big Lemon', a
campaign to preserve Brighton based environmentally-friendly bus services,
powered by 100% recycled cooking oil.(www.buzzbnk.org/savethebiglemon)

The gift voucher initiative coincides with Buzzbnk achieving its first
delivery milestone, reaching the funding target for a mushroom-cultivation
scheme in India. 'Mushroom growing to get people out of poverty' -

Under the scheme, funders have enabled Indian women to earn money and
feed their families from mushroom-growing. Besides aiming to increase
people's income and health, the crowd backing this project also creates
something that is replicable and sustainable.

Such projects demonstrate how Buzzbnk makes a difference in the social
sector.
