ABSTRACT:
A method of streamlining, simplifying and inducing the giving of contributions or gifts by prospective contributors or gift givers, receiving and immediately capturing thereof upon receipt is provided. The method comprises the steps of providing a stimulus for evoking an impulse to make a monetary contribution or gift commitment. The stimulus is selected from the group consisting of an audio stimulus, a video stimulus, and an audio/visual stimulus. The method further consists of the step of spreading amidst a crowd of prospective contributors or gift givers a plurality of electronic contributions or gifts management devices for immediate capture of a string of data that includes successive monetary contributions or gifts and batch off-loading of the data from the contributions or gifts management device whereby recordation of each of the contributions is uninterrupted by a verification of validation and/or authorization. The latent contribution potential of the crowd of prospective gift givers or contributors is activated and the contribution or gift preferences of the gift givers or contributors is accommodated. The contribution is selected from the group consisting of a political contribution, a charitable contribution, and a religious contribution, and the step of spreading includes advancing, dispersing, distributing, migrating, interspersing, and disseminating the devices; and the devices are optionally self-powered. The monetary gift is selected from the group consisting of a wedding gift, a funeral gift, a christening gift, a birthday gift, an anniversary gift, a graduation gift, a mother's day gift, a father's day gift, a baby shower gift, a first holy communion gift, a religious rite gift, and a baptism gift.
