Benevolink Information

Benevolink is a new movement in corporate giving that links individuals, corporations and nonprofit organizations to improve communities. The Benevolink program: - Helps consumers give to their favorite charities, including schools, religious, arts and cultural organizations and other causes our consumer members really care about, through the act of shopping - Helps businesses increase sales, profits and market share, while forming bonds with consumers - Helps charities generate additional, unrestricted revenue on a year-round basis while adding value for their supporters Now, the simple act of shopping -- when coupled with the power of 'pooled giving' and consumer choice -- creates a win-win-win scenario for consumers, businesses and charitable causes. Our vision is to significantly increase the funding capacity over time for more than one million nonprofit organizations making a difference in their communities across the United States. The Benevolink Corporation is a for-profit entity responsible for operating and managing the Benevolink program and its online shopping portal, The Marketplace@Benevolink. The company derives its revenue from the marketing fees it charges participating businesses. The Benevolink Foundation is a separate entity from The Benevolink Corporation. The Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and has a separate board of directors. The purpose of the Foundation is to disburse funds that Benevolink members generate by shopping to charities, schools, cultural and religious organizations. The Benevolink Mission The Benevolink mission is to bring together consumers, retailers and nonprofits to help all reach their respective goals by enabling consumers to direct corporate giving to the causes they see as worthy. This is what makes Benevolink unique -- providing a responsibly progressive means for all groups in the giving community to achieve their objectives. Everyone benefits. It's Giving Made Simple.®
