We build it. You share it. Your cause earns year-round.
Funding For Your Cause gives your organization its own online shopping and deals website, then helps turn everyday online shopping into a simple year-round fundraising opportunity.
We create your unique fundraising website
Your organization receives its own website domain. This keeps your group’s purchases and reporting separate and easy to understand.
We build your shopping/deals website
The site is modeled after a proven online deals format, (AlwaysCheckHereFirst.com) except with your organization’s name and branding added so supporters know they are shopping to support your cause.
Your organization promotes the site
Share the website with parents, members, families, parishioners, supporters, newsletters, bulletins, email lists, social media pages, and community announcements. Let your supporters know that by making purchases on this site, they will not only be saving money but they will also be making money for your organization!
Supporters shop through your site
Your community visits your custom site, chooses offers, and shops through the links when they find deals they want to use.
