We spent a bunch of time yesterday looking at this. Given the personal nature of charitable giving, we decided that users might want to have control over who can see their activity and updates. Doing a hybrid where you follow me and I follow you = friends may be too complicated for most users. So, we’re back to the double opt-in model of friendship similar to Facebook and LinkedIn. We can always open it up later.
