They are based out of Detroit, Michigan and Atlanta, Georgia. == Projects == LaunchGood has been used to fundraise for several nationally-recognized projects, including a campaign to help rebuild African-American churches destroyed by arson in the summer of 2015,〔("Why Muslims are raising money for black churches destroyed by fire" ): Christian Science Monitor.
