Why Should You Consider Working With Us?

Welcome. We are a small, locally owned business made up of parents who have spent a great deal of time volunteering for various charities and activates. We recognized that many charities use traditional fund raising methods to raise funds. As a volunteer, we witnessed the extra amount of effort it takes to start, manage and continue the fund raising process. We also saw that once the specific activity finished, the money stopped coming.    

 

We have talked to many parents about the fund raising activity we were involved in at the time. We had our own feelings about working with fund raisers. What we found is that almost all of the parents and volunteers felt the exact same way! The organizers had very similar feelings. We thought that if we could simplify the process, make it better to manage, increase the revenue it generates and make it fun for the parents, children and all of the volunteers, we would have a realistic way of making the process better. As a contributor, we were uncomfortable with the whole process of children selling door to door. Many people have told us they would rather “just give the money” then buy something they don’t really want or need. After a long wait, the products show up months later, always at the wrong time. It always seems that you don’t have the correct amount when they come to deliver the products.
