What is StayClassy?

StayClassy is an on-demand social fundraising solution for Nonprofit organizations. Our web-based platform allows Nonprofits to receive online donations, organize fundraising events & campaigns, manage donors across social media, and access our real-time reporting and analytics engine. StayClassy helps these organizations market themselves across the web, particularly to a younger demographic, with plug-ins to popular social sites like Facebook, Twitter, Myspace and more. Since it's free to register your Nonprofit on StayClassy, we also help out by decreasing the administrative time and costs associated with traditional enterprise software.

"The San Diego-based group behind [StayClassy] is genuinely passionate about their philanthropic mission. For years, they've continually hit the streets with the StayClassy brand to raise funds for good causes via charitable events. Their belief in creating a philanthropic platform for non-profits on shoestring budgets is evidenced in pretty much everything they do."
