After many years as volunteer leaders, we have taken the best elements from a wide variety of fundraising practices and methods and used them to create a proven foundation for Hubbub Local. Next we built a modern and flexible framework to run the many underlying systems that make our platform so much more efficient and effective. We also designed our features to adapt to each organization's structure and makeup so that we can serve their specific needs in their "Hometown" community. In the end, our program helps the Public make a significant impact when they donate to join our SHOP | SAVE | SUPPORT^® discount savings platform. Not only are they getting a full year of great savings, but they also helping local businesses grow while at the same time empowering organizations of all sizes and types to bring students the training and opportunities to build a better future.

• to help Faith-based, School, and Civic Organizations of almost any size* increase their fundraising profits

• to help our business partners attract and keep more customers so they can boost their bottom-line

• to help public supporters join their local Discount Savings Club where they get a full year of savings

When we were creating our platform we were challenged to design it to:

• Raise enough money so that ALL students can afford to participate in their chosen activity,

• Find long term solutions rather than short term gimmicks, and

• Provide multiple fundraising methods that can be adapted to work in communities of all sorts (rural, urban, suburbs, etc...)

These efforts produced a powerful, efficient and productive Platform that securely delivers much higher returns with less effort and in a way that continues to build year after year.
