The Network of Giving today announced the ceremonial completion of its first transaction and micro-donation benefiting the community ahead of its official launch in Seattle.
The Network of Giving Software as a Service (SaaS) platform is a robust, hyper-local digital solution that promotes community engagement by connecting local consumers, who use their existing debit and credit cards at participating merchants, with community organizations. This innovative platform enhances digital fundraising efficiencies.
Through digital commerce and merchant-defined, funded micro-donations, local merchants gain access to digital tools that help grow their business with measurable marketing results via the Network of Giving. Consumers can support local organizations, thereby benefiting their community without incurring additional costs.
The Network of Giving represents the most democratic form of giving in history, founded on principles of service, accountability, innovation, and intellectual property to improve the lives of community members.
Participating non-profits in the Network of Giving embrace and support this innovative, fully automated digital solution, which drives impact and operational efficiencies while uniting them in their missions. Seattle non-profits involved include: United Way of King County, Special Olympics Washington, Make-A-Wish Alaska & Washington, and Northwest Harvest.
This inaugural transaction activates the Network of Giving platform, fostering a community-centric movement by connecting consumers and local merchants with community organizations, all while requiring participants to continue their regular activities.
