About Joe
I’m Joe Jepsen, your Local Fundraising Coordinator.
I work with schools, churches, nonprofits, clubs, teams, community groups, and other organizations that are looking for a simpler way to raise money. My role is not just to point you toward a fundraising program and disappear. I am here to help you get started, answer questions, explain how things work, help you think through promotion, and provide ongoing support when you need it.
I believe fundraising should be straightforward, practical, and easy for an organization to manage. You should know what you are signing up for, understand how your organization benefits, and have a real person you can contact when questions come up.
A real person you can reach
One of the reasons I created JoesFundraising.com was to give organizations a direct point of contact. Instead of being handed a website and expected to figure everything out on your own, you can contact me when you need help. Whether you have a question before getting started, need help explaining the fundraiser to your organization, or want ideas for reaching more supporters, I am here to help. I want the process to feel personal rather than corporate.
What I do as your Fundraising Coordinator
Think of me as your dedicated coach and support system. I can help you set up your fundraiser, understand the program, plan how you want to introduce it to your organization, and find practical ways to promote it to your supporters.
I also remain available after you get started. If questions come up later, you still have someone you can contact. There is no charge to your organization for my help.
How I am compensated
I also believe in being transparent about how my role works. As the Fundraising Coordinator, I receive a very small commission directly from the company that operates the fundraising program.
That commission is paid entirely by the company. It does not reduce or affect your organization’s earnings in any way. Your organization still receives 20% on all first-time orders and 10% on every order after that. My compensation comes from helping organizations successfully get started and supporting them along the way, not by taking a portion of the money your organization earns.
Why JoesFundraising.com exists
JoesFundraising.com gives organizations a simple place to learn about the fundraising opportunity, see whether it makes sense for their group, and connect directly with me when they are ready. I want schools, churches, teams, nonprofits, clubs, and community organizations to have another fundraising option without adding unnecessary work for volunteers and organizers.
More importantly, I want you to know there is a person behind the website who is available to help. If you have questions, contact me. I will be happy to talk through them with you and help you decide whether the program is a good fit for your organization.
