Zimbee is a free online service that makes it easy for you to collect money from multiple people for the things your group or cause needs.Zimbee was founded with the belief that more good things would happen every day if the process of raising and collecting money for all the small but important activities taking place in your community was easier than it currently is.The inspiration for Zimbee was informed by our own work on GiveToBenefit.com, a campaign-driven site that enlisted local merchants in the process of crowdfunding to help nonprofits and causes obtain high-quality goods, as well as the unsettling fact that most online fundraising campaigns – on even the biggest platforms – fail to meet their goals. We had a specific person in mind when we created Zimbee: The organizer. The person people rely on to collect money for the baseball team's post-playoff pizza party. Or to raise money for that holiday social at work. Or to build a fund for a plaque in the school lobby. Or to source goods and services for the local animal shelter.With all the online services out there, it's normal to turn to technology for help. And today you can find a variety of tools to raise funds for all the activities and causes that energize your life and your community.There's a crowdfunding platform here; an online payment service there. You've got your patchwork of email and social media accounts for outreach and communication. But no technology, really, that brings it all together to make it easy for you. And certainly no technology that involves merchants who are as much engaged community members as they are businesspeople. Because, at the end of the day, good things only happen when good people make them happen.Now there's Zimbee.Quick to set up, simple to use, and free of charge, Zimbee makes it easy for you to collect money for all the fundraising projects that make up the fabric of daily life, and then spend the money with merchants in your community.
