| The founders of Givzy are old friends who met on
the volleyball courts of Hermosa Beach! David, just having sold his
software startup company was highly motivated to spend the next year
of his life on the beach…playing hard and hardly working. Well, that
didn't last long! Craig, after working for a marketing department at
20th Century Fox became interested in online content and quickly
spoke to David about his aspirations of being an entrepreneur and
the excitement of building a business from the ground up. That was
enough to get David re-energized, but this time, because of Craig's
passion for working with non-profits, David wanted to make sure that
his next company had a strong philanthropic direction. With
David's experience in the online marketing world, Craig's background
and interests…and their desire to give back, they decided to start
an entertainment related company with an online marketing business
model that supports non-profits in a major way. And so Givzy was
born!
Givzy is a free service that gives ANYONE the ability to raise
money for various causes by composing, sending and forwarding
compelling or entertaining emails. Why the name Givzy?
Because Givzy gives a
percentage of ad revenue generated to schools, non-profits and
other good causes!
Givzy gives
25% to
non-profits.
(MUCH MORE than 1% - 3% average other companies donate)
