SIOUX FALLS, S.D., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Central Payments, a leading payments solution provider, announces the launch of the Street Charity Discover® Prepaid Card, a prepaid card that provides a simple way for consumers to help the hungry get access to food.
"Central Payments continuously looks for ways to power innovation in financial services. It's not often we get to join forces with a nonprofit to unlock a new way of serving those experiencing hardships. Today we're excited to announce our partnership with Street Charity, a nonprofit from Atlanta, GA," said Nikkee Rhody, CEO of Central Payments.
Street Charity Discover® Prepaid Cards have a fixed value to cover the cost of a meal along with varying state sales tax rates and can be redeemed at quick-serve restaurants in the U.S. where Discover is accepted. Through a monthly subscription model available at StreetCharity.org, donors can contribute as little as $35 per month and receive four cards mailed directly to their home. Donors can also choose to have Street Charity send cards to community partners directly. Bulk card quantities are also available for larger donations on the website.
"This is a completely new concept that solves the dual dilemma that most charitable people face every day; they don't carry cash and they don't want their donation to be misused," said John Patton, Founder and CEO of Street Charity. Patton continued, "Our card provides maximum flexibility to those who are hungry by giving them the decency to eat the kind of food that they prefer, whenever they feel like eating it."
