Finally, an Easy Way for Charities, Non-profits and Schools to Raise Funds For Their Work While Consumers Save Money and Have More Fun
Community based charitable organizations often struggle to raise money to support their mission when a catastrophic emergency occurs, because money from local donors is diverted to national charities. A new fundraising tool called the Let’s Go Have Fun Card is now available. A $5 donation from each $15 card sale is paid to fundraising organizations, and is paid over and over again on a residual basis. Each time the card is renewed, the charitable organization receives another donation.
Orlando, FL (PRWEB) February 19, 2006 -- Community based charitable organizations must constantly work at raising money to support their mission. When a catastrophic emergency occurs, money from compassionate donors that might normally be sent to local charities is diverted to big name national charities.
With all of the emergencies of the past two years – such as Tsunamis in the Pacific, all of the hurricanes in the South, and with 9/11 in our not too distant past, it seems that national or international fundraising efforts get much of the attention – and most of the donation money. All while many donors feel that charity should begin at home.
Now a new solution to this issue has been created. It is called the Let’s Go Have Fun Card and a paradigm shift in fundraising tools has begun. A significant advantage to fundraising organizations who participate in the program is that a $5 donation is paid for each card sold, and is paid over and over again on a residual basis. Each time the card is renewed, the charitable organization receives another donation.
The Card, which retails for $15 provides discounts to card holders on fun activities, is expected to be available in up to 400 US markets by the end of 2007. Markets currently open include Orlando, where the company is located and Lee County, FL. Independent dealers are currently being recruited in 50 markets which are expected to open by June 2006.
The Company’s CEO and President, Scott A Dennison said “after meeting with so many directors of charities and even heads of local PTA groups that the need for a new tool to help them raise much needed funds was obvious. Many consumers told us that if they could save money on fun activities and help those in need then this was a product they would want.”
Donald W. Conner, President of the Thaddeus Group in Tampa, Fl., who is an advisor to the Company said “the residual aspect of this product is unique, and Charities are starving for new ways to raise funds to carry out their missions”.
Charities, non-profits and schools who are planning fund raising campaigns or individuals who may be interested in the dealership opportunity are invited to contact the company at (888) 826-0526 or through the website, which is located at http://www.havefuncard.com.
