At Vertical Raise, we work tirelessly to ensure our customers meet and exceed their fundraising goals. To do this, we build and maintain numerous products so that field representatives have the tools to succeed and our customers raise the most amount of money possible. Our best-in-class donation platform is a crowdfunding, social media integrated fundraising system specifically designed for clubs, non-profits and sports teams of all demographics. This platform was built as an alternative to traditional fundraising, or “selling products door-to-door” and is our flagship product. We also build, maintain and help groups run discount card fundraisers. These discount cards provide the consumer with up to 10% cash back from over 260 nationwide brands and have been designed so that our customers raise and keep a much larger percentage than offered from our competitors. Most of our fundraising efforts are centralized around high schools and high school sports. This means, our representatives are primarily working with coaches and athletes to guarantee fundraisers are organized and to help them raise the funds necessary for a successful season. The budgets for high school programs have sky rocketed in recent years and it’s our companies’ mission to help soften this blow and help these groups raise money. Mission Statement: To make fundraising more efficient and to build products that raise more money so that passionate groups may reach their goals.
