GBNon-Profit CEO Approved I am the CEO of a newer non-profit and due to this In-Kind donations help us to support our mission while we work on building up cash to take care of necessities. I found The Shareway via a Google search. At first, I signed up for a free account and then upgraded to a paid account. Signed up in mid-May and to date our organization has received $170K worth of In-Kind donations. I will say that one of the dozen companies that approved us is responsible for a large chuck of that amount but we never would've even known or considered them without having access to this list. We also use it track our approved donations against ones that were not approved. This helps us with our strategy and planning. I really like the service. It has proved to be valuable after a short time.

GBI'm a huge fan! I have been a fan of TheShareWay since it started. My very first request was fulfilled and I've used it for every event I've held for the past five years. They continue to add perks and resources that make it helpful for events and fundraising. The site is very user-friendly and they add new vendors regularly to keep the content fresh. It's a terrific value and well worth the nominal investment.

GBI want to compliment you on Shareway I want to compliment you on Shareway. I stumbled on it while trying to research possible donors. We have 3 big fundraisers a year-2 concerts and a golf tournament. We just added the 2nd concert recently and the team asked me to get sponsors as well as raffle prizes with about 5 weeks before the event. Fortunately, some of our past sponsors were willing to help us out again, but the raffle prizes were a challenge. Finding your site I was able to send out a bunch of requests in a short period of time and have already picked up 6 donations that we would not have without your site. It also helped me identify some local companies I could drop sponsor info by, and ask them in person rather than spend time trying to figure out how to approach them properly. If just a couple of those help out it will be a big plus. Thanks for building the site-great idea. I will be using it next year but with more time to seek donations and hopefully get more responses. Thanks!

GBI just started out doing fundraising… I just started out doing fundraising events and I was going to multiple different websites to apply wait and just doing research on if they aligned with my mission and brand. I happened to find The share way and ever since I have been able to apply to multiple different donors all with the use of the different filters I could see the donors that align with my brand as well as keep track of my donor progress and approvals. You get updated emails about how many people was approved for certain donors or even list of donors who haven't approved or replied. It a Gold mine The Share Way saves so much time and you track basically everything as you progress and it makes it super efficient.

GBTheShareWay adds valuable hours to your day If you're a non-profit, wearing multiple hats, lean staffing and minimal budgets are your everyday. Sourcing valuable goods (or even food & meeting spaces) for upcoming fundraisers, Galas or Volunteer Appreciation events takes a considerable amount of time with no guarantee on investment. Along comes TheShareWay; a brilliant resource to even the most resourceful bargain hunter. They take the long hours of researching 'companies that give' out of the equation, leaving you with an actionable list of organizations with existing community giving programs. Finding needed goods from well-established corporate donors has truly never been easier. Highly recommend.
