Company Summary

We're a For-Profit/For-Impact tech company building the world's first personal video-driven fundraising platform that empowers Non Profits & Corporations to engage Millennials to take action & give.

We will be fully sustainable from current operating income over the next 60 days, but incremental investment will drive expansion and corresponding opportunity to help more charities drive their fund-raising sooner.
