Donation Engine powers local non-profit fundraising efforts!

February 28th, 2011

Here’s something you may not know, Xcellent Creations has strong ties to the local community through our non-profit involvement.

One of the things we’re most proud of here at XC Inc. is providing software to power many local charity campaigns. Some of the great events we’ve worked with include: Mustache4Cash, Color4Kidz, The Class Act, Golf Fiesta, YOF’s The Bash and The Big Bowl.  Proceeds from these events go to organizations like the Youth Opportunity Foundation (YOF) and Byrne Urban Scholars.

Speaking of which, the Golf Fiesta is coming up in just a couple of months. You can register your foursome now at www.golffiesta.org

A snapshot of Donation Engine in action

Our work with non-profits started in 2006 with Mustache4Cash. XC Inc. donated technology that has come to be known as Donation Engine, to the fundraiser and helped raise half a million dollars for YOF. Now that may not seem like the biggest deal, but when you think about technology as an in-kind donation, it really speaks to how much we wanted to step up to the plate!

We’re currently working on a Donation Engine to better help facilitate non-profit fundraising. Donation Engine gives any charitable organization the ability to power their fundraisers through a sleek, user-friendly, web-based technology.  Donation Engine isn’t just a way to collect donations; it can distribute tickets, and promote and register participants in events.

In the past, organizations relied on non-automated ways to do these things, or if they were technology based, it was costly. We’d like to support philanthropic ventures by giving them smart, usable technology at a cost that any non-profit can afford.

If you’re interested in applying to be a beta tester for Donation Engine, please shoot us an email.

While Donation Engine can support any philanthropic venture, we keep 100% local and grassroots organizations working to build a better Colorado close to our heats. We also love supporting non-profits like YOF that strive to give the totality of their event proceeds to their beneficiaries. It’s that sort of dedication and follow through that inspire us here at XC Inc.
