Razoo.com Launches GiveMN.org, a Local Online Donation Platform for Minnesota
Non-Profits
Partnering With the St. Paul Foundation and Minnesota Community Foundation to
Revolutionize Philanthropy

WASHINGTON, DC, November 3 /PRNewswire/ -- http://www.Razoo.com today
unveiled http://www.GiveMN.org, a comprehensive, local giving marketplace in
partnership with the St. Paul Foundation and the Minnesota Community
Foundation. The GiveMN site is designed to connect donors and non-profits in
Minnesota and set a new standard for online giving.
The new platform combines tools that make it easy for non-profits to
raise money and inspiring for donors to give money. Razoo's easy-to-use
fundraising and donation tools facilitate online donations to any 501(c)3
non-profit group in the United States at no cost to either the non-profit or
the user. Razoo's donation platform also allows individuals to create their
own online fundraisers for the non-profit of their choice, and provides
capabilities for both individuals and non-profits to tell their stories
through text, photos, and videos.
The fundraising service is integrated with Facebook, Twitter, and other
social media services, making it easy for users to promote fundraising
opportunities to their friends, family, and communities at large.
"The mission of Razoo is to revolutionize philanthropy by helping donors
experience the joy of giving and by making it easier and more efficient for
non-profits to tell their stories and raise money," said Sebastian Traeger,
Razoo's CEO. "This new giving marketplace makes it easier for the people of
Minnesota to connect with causes they care about."
Razoo intends to launch other local giving marketplaces by partnering
with community foundations and corporations in 2010. Each local giving
marketplace also supports giving cards, matching campaigns, contests and
other tools to encourage giving.
"We are so thankful to be working with the talented folks at GiveMN, and
to be supporting their efforts to revolutionize philanthropy in Minnesota,"
said Traeger.
