Zazzle recently spent a night out on the town in San Francisco sponsoring an event with strategic partner Craigslist Foundation for their June “Nonprofit Night” on “Earned Income Strategies.” The event took place at Temple Nightclub and attracted dozens of community organizations and cause-minded individuals – all eager to learn about “Earned Income Strategies” including helpful information and tools for their organizations to succeed. The panelists included industry leaders Darian Heyman Rodriguez, Executive Director Craigslist Foundation; Jason Trimiew, Development Director of REDF; Cedric Yap, COO of Goodwill SF and James Heckman, Chief Strategy Officer of Zazzle.
Zazzle’s James Heckman explained to attendees how nonprofits can raise funds without risk and promote their causes at the same time through the Zazzle Giving Program – for every product created by a nonprofit or charity, Zazzle gives up to 27 percent to those organizations.
Attendees were able to see Zazzle’s high quality products, ask questions about how the Giving Program works, and how to get started. Overall, the evening was a great success and we were pleased to be part of it. If you missed the June event, not to worry, Zazzle will be sponsoring a series of Nonprofit Nights with the Craigslist Foundation throughout the year in both San Francisco and New York, so keep an eye out for those listings at www.craigslistfoundation.org.
