Another wonderful example is the Donors Choose site.

1) Clear call-to-action button for donors. 2) Seperate, prominent call-to-action for teachers. 3) Recent testimonials from other donors as encouragement. 4) Photos of the actual kids benefiting from various projects on the homepage.

Hope this helps. I annotated a screenshot, but too new to Stack Exchange to add it here.

Thanks. I see a pattern emerging. :) – fluxd Nov 11 '10 at 22:00

In my mind, while it's about micro-lending, you can still make the argument that kiva.org is one of the most successful sites on the web at getting funds to those in need, to help themselves.

Nice but what is the deal with the tiny search field? – fluxd Nov 12 '10 at 20:49
dunno, that part was out of our control unfortunately, we wanted it bigger. – ThomPete Nov 12 '10 at 21:15

While not cause-specific, there are probably some decent patterns to be found here: http://www.kickstarter.com/
