Groups looking to throw a fundraiser need a place to do so, and a restaurant is often a good option.  A launch party or even simple information meeting at a restaurant can help to bring in business during its slower business hours.  An arrangement between a restaurant and a group, particularly one hoping to bring in a large group of people, can take a long time and a lot of work.  This is where GroupRaise comes in, helping them find each other more efficiently than traditional methods.  Its creators tout it as local community networking for groups and restaurants.  Its site will let restaurants post available time slots that groups can request online, and the group earns a percentage of the sales for its cause while restaurants can give back to the community.  The restaurant does not need to offer discounts or coupons, but can give a cause some of its profit that is essentially extra by reaping the benefit of having more customers who would not normally be there at that time.

GroupRaise exists to help restaurants build stronger relationships with local customers through meal fundraisers that support causes in their communities.  There can be anywhere between twenty and two hundred people at a fundraising meal, organized within a matter of minutes rather than weeks.  GroupRaise takes care of helping groups and restaurants find each other, organizing events, and marketing them once arranged.  This way, charitable organizations can develop meaningful experiences and relationships across the dinner table while increasing sales and creating potential repeat business for the restaurants hosting them.  It uses a basic website format, so you can use it from any Internet-connected computer or mobile device regardless of any personal need for tech support.

Customers look for business interested in community involvement online first, which means most people will simply pass over one without an online presence.  Restaurants listed on GroupRaise receive listing in the fundraiser marketplace as well as getting a custom fundraiser request site to link to from its website. If a restaurant does not currently have a fundraising program, GroupRaise will help create one in just minutes online.  It can essentially act as a home network service linking those needing to raise funds with others willing to host.  You can search local restaurants, book a date, confirm details and attendees, and promote your fundraiser on social media from the website.  Also on the front page is a map of your local area and a list of the closest restaurants in the marketplace.  Each has information such as how much each pledges, average meal price, and a contact link.  Whether as an organizer or a restaurant interested in helping, GroupRaise may be the perfect solution for you.
