Baltimore Area - Sales Development Representative at Parvenu - Washington D.C., Washington, D.C., United States
We believe businesses have a responsibility to better the communities they serve. One way retailers do this is by asking shoppers to support charitable causes at the checkout counter by rounding up their purchase. Retailers only support a single nonprofit at checkout and a lack of personalization leaves shoppers unengaged. We're building a better retail charity checkout platform that raises more money by asking people to give to causes they already care about; it asks the mom getting diapers to round up for a children's charity, the lady behind her grabbing dog food to donate to the local animal shelter, and the man refilling his medicine to give to research for a cure. Shoppers are rewarded for donating with discounts on future purchases for related items. This personalized engagement for retailers increases sales, builds brand, instills loyalty, and differentiates from the competition by helping the local community.
