GiveForward won $5,000!

Last Friday, The Illinois Hispanic Entrepreneurship Center awarded us their $5,000 grant for being a ‘high-growth potential firm.’

We are so excited and honored to receive this grant, and it’s going to be put to great use! The award comes at an especially perfect time for us, since we are in the process of promoting the new version of our site.

On the new site, which launches this July, we are starting specialized “group” pages, where it will now be easier for nonprofit organizations, college and grade school clubs, and other institutions to fundraise for their cause and have a permanent place here at GiveForward.

This award will also help expand our user outreach. With the grant, we can help more individuals fundraising directly to friends and family for meaningful causes, such as medical expenses.

We hope you’re as excited as we are about the changes to come with GiveForward. We’re growing fast and we couldn’t do it without the support of our awesome community!
