New Features Help A Birthday Wish Set A New Causes Record: $10K In 24 Hours

Birthdays have always been a big deal on Facebook, driving users to pile onto eachother's Facebook profiles to leave good wishes and doodles of cake. But more and more, users are looking to channel this goodwill into something a little more special using Birthday Wish, a service from the philanthropic startup Causes that makes it easy to ask your friends to donate to charity in honor of your big day.

Today, we've gotten word that the service has set a new record: Dave Morin, a long-time former Facebook employee who is now CEO of stealthish startup Path, managed to raise over $10,000 in 24 hours, which is the fastest-growing Birthday Gift ever (the total totally is now up to over $11K). �He'll be donating the proceeds to�UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital in San Francisco, and if you'd like to participate you can find his Wish here.
