HANDUP PBC

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, HandUp aims to partner with non-profit human services organizations to raise money online. These organizations can fundraise for things like special programs, client needs, and program and operational expenses. With HandUp, users can donate to a specific person via their web profile or SMS, learn about their story and needs, and hear updates on their progress. Fulfillment partners and retailers on the ground ensure members use donations on basics like food, clothing, and housing. The company was founded in June 2013.
