The yearly ritual of March Marchness is almost upon us. For the Razoo team it’s March Goodness time. March Goodness is national nonprofit fundraising competition modeled after the NCAA basketball tournament. The contest includes 64 US nonprofits competing in the Big Dance and 32 smaller nonprofits competing in RazooNIT. The nonprofit teams will try to amass the most “votes” from individual donors (using the Razoo giving platform) in order to win cash prizes. Razoo is a web company that seeks to revolutionize the philanthropic marketplace. They have facilitated more than $18 million in donations to US charities since their launch in late 2008.
This year Razoo’ers are reaching out to the local DC tech community for sponsorships (prize money for the nonprofits), in-kind donations (fun stuff for donors to win), and cross-promotion. Last year’s contest raised $160,000 for nonprofits across the US, and awarded a big prize to a lucky organization. They are hoping we can double that amount this year and assist nonprofits in their ability to raise funds online and function the Web 2.0 way.
The Razoo team believes their sponsors have a unique opportunity to not only promote their own brand on a national platform, but also to support the causes and local charities they believe in. How about some link love for them?
