An Easier Way to Donate, iGiveSmart.com

GiveSmart LogoiGiveSmart.com, a site and system built and managed by QuickSilver Interactive Group, is a simple concept -- a commission is paid to a non-profit organization each time someone buys from any one of hundreds of online stores. So far churches, agencies, service groups and other not-for-profits have signed up to receive commissions free and for very little effort.

"The idea is not unique, we just made it all very simple and easy, for both the organization and their members to raise money without incurring staff time," said Bob Mullins, who, with Maury Jaffer, founded the Dallas-based Give Smart, LLC. "Our organizations are up and running in minutes and their members can shop, buy and donate instantly."

To be successful, all the organization has to do is encourage its members to begin their online shopping through the organization's customized iGiveSmart.com Web site. No registration, no ads. Nothing about the online shopping and buying experience changes.

Online e-commerce revenues during the 2009 holiday season alone hit a record $29.1 billion with more people shopping online during the bad weather days leading up to Christmas than ever before. The continued growth of online e-commerce even during tough economic times is a clear signal of the promise and potential of online retailing.

The entire iGiveSmart.com system was built by QuickSilver Interactive Group, Inc. of Dallas.

Organizations wishing to learn more or register to benefit from the program need only visit iGiveSmart.com for all the details.
