CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, UNITED STATES, August 1, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Sports Philanthropy Network (SPN) and OmegaJam have teamed up to create a charitable contest platform that will help nonprofit organizations increase donations for their philanthropic activities. This partnership brings together SPN’s expertise in sports philanthropy and OmegaJam’s innovative approach of utilizing a charity ticketing system to raise donations for community-building projects.
This collaboration will help Sports Philanthropy Network continue its mission of creating social impact by helping organizations build stronger, healthier, and more inclusive communities through sports.
“Sports Philanthropy Network and OmegaJam share the ideological commitment to social good,” said Roy Kessel, Founder, Sports Philanthropy Network. “Through this partnership we will be able to combine resources with OmegaJam and utilize our collective knowledge, and networks to support the fundraising initiatives that will strengthen nonprofit organizations.”
SPN will collaborate with OmegaJam through its charity contest program, a new fundraising model which features B2B2C technology. This fundraising structure assigns tickets to supporters who donate.
Tickets are then redeemed for entries into charity contests that offer entrants the opportunity to win prizes based on their performance. Donors who wish to participate make a donation through the OmegaJam’s platform, and all donations are disbursed to the partner organizations through the Sports Philanthropy Network.
“We are thrilled to partner with OmegaJam to create this platform that will benefit so many organizations,” said Kessel. “We know that securing new financial resources is one of the most important ways we can help organizations create greater impact in their communities. The ability to assist organizations in our network raise funds to support their critical missions is one of our highest priorities.”
OmegaJam appeals to a charity’s target donor-base and provides it with an original method to raise funds. “We are excited to partner with Sports Philanthropy Network to help nonprofits raise funds to develop new and innovative programs,” said David Hirsch, CEO/Founder of OmegaJam. “We know that our technology and our proprietary contests will provide these organizations with a new tool to raise crucial funding.”
The partnership will include joint fundraising, marketing and prizing efforts through the OmegaJam website, as well as collaborative efforts to publicize each organizations’ mission and program.
“The Sports Philanthropy Network is proud to implement this collaboration,” said Kessel. “We know that this support will be instrumental for the organizations and our goal is to strengthen their respective impact in their communities. So many organizations lack the financial resources to expand their programming and recruit more staff. We are hopeful that these fundraising efforts will allow the organizations to expand their impact and broaden their reach.”
