  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 52 people are interested

Are you someone who enjoys participating in projects that will help a diverse set of nonprofits thrive?
Do you love the idea that nonprofits can get revenue through cause marketing, which costs supporters nothing?
If so, then you might be the perfect candidate
Ideal volunteer candidates will have an understanding of business fundamentals, good on-line research, strategic thinking, and writing skills.
Volunteers should also be personable and comfortable with use of the email communications and it doesn't hurt of they are good at Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Plus occasionally we might even use the phone. ;-)
Selected volunteers will work with the team on both exciting new and ongoing projects.
Manhattan location or remote volunteer work possible.

Giving Forward is a new nonprofit founded by the same team behind We-Care, which generated $8.3 million for nonprofits (the "inspiration" for Amazon SMILE which has generated over $160 million more).

Giving Forward is launching cause marketing powered publishing websites and video across many categories and will be helping nonprofits in nearly every category by donating 50% of advertising and sponsorship revenue to the other nonprofits selected by readers and content creators.

We will launch with over 1 billion impressions of display media banners donated to help us drive readership and revenue for the causes our readers and content creators select.

We launch with 5 content domains and have an additional 30 cued up.

About Giving Forward

Location:

251 West 30th Street, 6th Floor, New York, NY 10001, US

Mission Statement

We create programs and technology platforms which: generate social impact through marketing, advertising, publishing, events or commerce. Revenue is derived largely from monetization of the time and attention of consumers engaged in great, fun and informative content.

Description

Before Giving Forward, there was We-Care, a for-profit cause marketing company.

2007: Kevin Lee and David Pasternack co-founders of Didit launch We-Care.com a for-profit eCommerce cause marketing platform. We-Care’s "Shop with Purpose" platform launched with Amazon and 1700+ other merchants.

2018: Seeking to apply the cause marketing model to online publishing, Kevin Lee, Dave Pasternack and Didit bid on Gawker with the intent to pivot the defunct website into Gawker for Good ( Ad Age article). In the final Gawker.com bankruptcy auction, Didit loses Gawker to Bryan Goldberg at Bustle (BDG).

2019: The founding Board of Directors start Giving Forward, to deploy the cause marketing powered publishing business model in a non-profit scenario. The mission to create programs and technology platforms which: generate social impact through marketing, advertising, publishing, events or commerce. Revenue is derived from advertising from great, fun and informative content. Another way of thinking about it is that consumers (a silly marketing term) "volunteer" their time and attention to Giving Forward brands which is converted into revenue for nonprofits.
