CauseNetwork Launches Free Fundraising Mobile App for Nonprofits Revolutionary App Lets Consumers Target a Percentage of Every Purchase to their Favorite Cause

    MCLEAN, VA, December 08, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A new Mobile App launched this week by CauseNetwork makes it easy for consumers and their favorite nonprofit causes to join forces so that every shopping experience generates contributions by retailers. The Mobile App, which is free to consumers and nonprofit causes, promises to make this holiday season greener for charitable causes.

The CauseNetwork App gives shoppers online access to over 1,000 retailers, including Priceline, Target, Amazon, and Walmart. By using the App, shoppers can direct up to 10 percent of every online purchase to their chosen cause once it joins CauseNetwork. Nonprofit groups can go further to help their communities by partnering with local merchants to provide fundraising coupons and offers through the new App.

CauseNetwork reflects the vision of two former nonprofit board members who wanted to make it easier for causes to raise funds, put more giving power in the hands of consumers and help retailers give to causes supported by their shoppers. Launched quietly earlier this year, CauseNetwork has signed up more than 150 local and national charities and interest grows daily.

"We give people a way to do more without asking them to spend more. Now consumers generate donations through their purchases and direct them to the cause they care about. And we've made it free!" said Clay Buckley, President of CauseNetwork. "We want this to be the charity App for the cause-conscious consumer."

"The fundraising landscape changes daily, and if you blink you will miss a new policy, technology or law that can drastically affect the future for your child. Finding new ways to raise funds for schools is critical in these difficult economic times, and CauseNetwork is helping us do that," said Tyler Barr, President-Elect, Georgia State PTA.

CauseNetwork's new App also has the capability for direct messaging, furthering a charity's ability to generate donations and deliver on their mission. The App is available for Apple and Android phones. To download the mobile app, please use these links for the Apple and Google Play stores.
