FundingFactory is a division of Environmental Reclamation Services, based in Erie, Pennsylvania, that provides a recycling fundraising program for schools and non-profit organizations to raise money or earn credit to purchase specific products for their needs. == History == Sean Michaels, co-founder of FundingFactory, received a phone call from a school official in Alton, Missouri, which was the spark of what is now a program which has awarded more than $20 million to schools and non-profits nationwide. It started as the Educational Technology Conservation Exchange Program (ETCEP) in 1997 because a school official was looking to raise money to purchase for computers for his school by recycling printer cartridges, has blossomed into FundingFactory and the concept of fundraising by recycling. Sean Michaels helped create a program for schools and other nonprofit organizations to raise the money that these types of entities are in need of by collecting used printer cartridges, a concept that didn’t exist before introduced by FundingFactory. Sean’s idea for recycling printer cartridges and recycling electronics was developed with a website so the entire fundraising program can be managed online. By 1998, FundingFactory had its first client, the school back in Alton, Missouri, whose school official’s phone call launched the entire program in the first place. To date, the FundingFactory recycling program has assisted over 50,000 nonprofits to raise more than $20 million. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「FundingFactory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
