University of Southern California donations received

This is an online portal with information on donations that were announced publicly (or have been shared with permission) that were of interest to Vipul Naik. The git repository with the code for this portal, as well as all the underlying data, is available on GitHub. All payment amounts are in current United States dollars (USD). The repository of donations is being seeded with an initial collation by Issa Rice as well as continued contributions from him (see his commits and the contract work page listing all financially compensated contributions to the site) but all responsibility for errors and inaccuracies belongs to Vipul Naik. Current data is preliminary and has not been completely vetted and normalized; if sharing a link to this site or any page on this site, please include the caveat that the data is preliminary (if you want to share without including caveats, please check with Vipul Naik). We expect to have completed the first round of development by the end of December 2019. See the about page for more details. Also of interest: pageview data on analytics.vipulnaik.com, tutorial in README, request for feedback to EA Forum.

Knight Foundation250,000.00--Technology, Journalismhttps://knightfoundation.org/grants/4606-- Grant period: 09/01/2009 - 12/31/2011; goal: To expand Spot.us, a project that publicly finances local investigative reporting, to Los Angeles in a partnership with the Annenberg School of Communication at the University of Southern California Spot.us is a 2008 Knight News Challenge winner. It uses micropayments collected from the public to fund local investigative and enterprise reporting. Since its launch in San Francisco a year ago, about 30 articles have been proposed, funded and written, the highest profile one for The New York Times. Rather than backing a news organization, the public is asked to consider funding individual stories. By seeing what stories the public is willing to pay for, and creating a mechanism to do so, Spot.us is testing the viability of an alternative funding stream for local news during an era in which daily newspapers are shedding local reporters. This project will extend Spot.us to Los Angeles through a partnership with the University of Southern California School of Journalism. The platform will be redeveloped to be more easily extended to additional cities with new features. Ultimately, we hope this grant shows how to scale Spot.us to any city and have it be sustainable there. Additionally, it is hoped that Spot.us shows that crowdsourced reporting […]. Earmark: Spot.us expansion.
