Small donations can really add up. Just pitching in a few dollars could find a cure for cancer, put a puppy in a new home, or save a child's life.

What is uRaise?

uRaise is the best way for people to raise money for their charity or non-profit organization. The days of asking people at work for money, going door-to-door, and having car washes are over. By handling donations online, groups in need of money are able to maximize their earning potential. They can reach anyone across the globe, as opposed to their neighbors. Donors have the ability to give with their credit or debit card, instead of just cash or check. It is also safer by eliminating the need to go house-to-house.

Lemonade Stand

uRaise takes advantage of modern technologies to help bring in the most money possible. By integrating with social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, uRaise gives groups the opportunity to reach over half a billion people. uRaise also utilizes text message donations, giving donors a quick and easy way to give money to causes they care most about.

When an organization signs up for uRaise, many tasks are automated for them. Fundraiser coordinators can generate IRS forms, thank you letters, and donation history reports all with the click of a button. They even get free advertising on the site, as donors always see possible fundraisers they might also like. uRaise is the easiest, safest, and most convenient way to get groups the money they need.
