Popular crowdfunding site Razoo is known for being a big help when it comes to fundraising. The site recently announced that it would participate in a veterans inspired fundraising event. According to Stars and Stripes, the event will be called Day For The Brave and will raise money for more than 100 nonprofits that benefits veterans. The event will take place on Veterans Day.
"As a typical American, you often see it as a holiday and a day off school or a day off work and a day you can buy a mattress at a deep discount," Razoo CEO Tom Matthews told Stars and Stripes. "Ultimately, over time, it's become this national holiday where people forget what this day is all about."
Matthews' site normally receives 4.9 percent of the donations made, however, he has elected to forgo that fee for the veterans events, the news source reported. He and the company hope that they can become a permanent part of Day For The Brave.
Razoo and other crowdfunding sites have made it easier for more people to give to charities and nonprofits, so the organization hopes to get its biggest turnout this year.
