School Budget Cuts Spurring Increased Usage of Online Fundraising Tools
As teachers gear up for another year of having to do more with less, some innovative fundraising programs are empowering teachers, parents, students and administrators to take matters into their own hands to help bridge the gap. Freelanthropy.com is one such company that recently introduced a free suite of online fundraising tools to educators at the 2009 National Education Association Expo in San Diego, CA.
In the face of state-wide cuts schools are hungry for ways to supplement their budgets to maintain the quality of education that all students deserve. Freelanthropy.com is now offering an innovative way to enable parents, teachers, administrators and even students to quite literally take matters into their own hands to generate revenue for their school.
While making cash donations might not be as easy for families today, just searching the web is now a painless way to help schools in need. Something as simple as using a search engine can now help provide better resources for the classroom.
By simply adding a school to the charity directory and then using the free search and communication tools provided by Freelanthropy, the act of using Yahoo! will earn money for whatever the school needs.
“While our services are available to a broad range of nonprofits and charities in the United States and Canada, Freelanthropy was originally born out of a desire to help schools, so it is a great privilege to be an exhibitor at NEA Expo 2009 and to be able to address the largest single assembly of educators on the planet.”
Sheehy added, “With four daughters of my own I see first-hand how schools are struggling to fulfill their mission of providing the best education possible. In addition to volunteering, now parents and studends can also generate direct financial support for their school just by searching the web. Freelanthropy’s Yahoo!powered web search tools provide a great method for supporters to generate money for schools without having to actually write a check. It’s a lot easier than going door-to-door with forms or cajoling neighbors to help you out.”
In addition to empowering supporters to generate revenue for their school just by searching or using the Shop & Give charity shopping service, Freelanthropy also helps them to stay connected to their school through the free “Community Toolbar” that Freelanthropy provides to each of its nonprofit partners.
An entire district can sign up, individual schools, grades or just a class.
