NEW STARTUP HELPS NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS FIND FUNDING IN INNOVATIVE PLACES

North Olmsted, OH November 27, 2006 – A new company based in the Cleveland area has successfully launched operations this week. My Open Hands is dedicated to creating great new fundraising strategies for small and medium non-profit organizations.

PTA groups, scouting organizations, youth groups and other non-profit organizations frequently struggle to come up with great fundraising resources outside of selling products (like candy bars) or performing low revenue, high labor services (like car washes). All of these efforts tend to require people to do “something special” in support of these groups, meaning that the support is outside of their daily lives and normal activities.

Many of these groups also suffer from the “peak and valley” fundraising phenomenon of struggling through 10 months of little support, followed by November and December with substantial financial support. My Open Hands founder Jeremy Moorman has been a board member for several such organizations over the past 10 years: “...my biggest frustration as a board member was working to find good, efficient fundraising vehicles for these small groups. The big guys have entire teams dedicated to raising money, so my mission is to bring those same tools and techniques to small organizations.”

My Open Hands seeks to tie in to the daily lives and normal events that people go through, giving non-profits ways to raise money through phone service bills, holiday shopping, credit cards, office supplies, technology services, and other products. “The common thread of all the services is leveraging consumer choice and turning it into real dollars for the non-profit” explains My Open Hands founder Jeremy Moorman.

Dealing with small organizations also means that they can not waste money on high-end consulting services or marketing materials, so My Open Hands offers their services at no cost to the organizations or the end users, and provide a complete Marketing Package to the organizations at no cost.

My Open Hands is a unique startup company focused on changing non-profit fundraising forever by pursuing a their vision to “Be servants to the world. Be game-changers in our space. Be real.” For further information, check out www.myopenhands.com or www.innovativefunds.com or call us at 888-225-8849.
