Charity Group Announces
Proprietary Credit Card Merchant Technology
that facilitates a Point-of-Sale Charitable
Donation.
|
.
CharityChex™, is a
proprietary credit card merchant technology system that
facilitates a point-of-sale, payer-designated charitable
donation. This system enables a seamless transaction
between a payer, merchant and charitable organization.
CharityChex™ facilitates, for
the first time ever, partnerships between retail
businesses and charitable organizations. The retail
establishments can use its CharityChex™
credit card merchant processing system to transfer funds
allocated by a patron as a charitable contribution on
his or her bill directly to their charity of choice. An
immediate tax invoice receipt will be printed as well
for the patron.
Upon payment of the retail invoice,
CharityChex™ fund transfer
system will direct point-of-sale patron-designated
charitable donation amounts to the charitable
organization of the patron’s choice, thereby negating
the need for the establishment to utilize any of its
resources to facilitate the transaction, yet garner the
customer satisfaction and client loyalty for being
recognized as a civically minded business establishment.
“CharityChex™
combines charity and retail establishments together
for the first time to create a win-win situation for
customers and businesses who want to contribute to
society in a simple, no hassle way,” said Scott O.
Talbot, Chairman, Charity Group, LLC. “We know that
now more than ever people want to give back and
CharityChex provides a simple, easy way to do just
that.”
Charity Group’s core mission is to provide connection
for all stakeholders in the non-profit sector.
Emphasizing the strategic and tactical linkages between
nonprofits, corporate sponsors and product/service
donors, the company is dedicating itself to organizing
relevant information, facilitating operating logistics,
increasing public visibility/exposure, and enhancing
overall operating profitability/efficiency for all
stakeholders operating in the non-profit sector. In
short, Charity Group is committed to transforming the
$295 billion non-profit industry by refashioning
stakeholder connections, strategically empowering donors
and creating innovative new showcases for both the
nonprofits and their supporters. In the process, we
also intend to build a dynamic, profitable and
sustainable business.
In addition, a number of foundations are intrigued by
the impact of our products and have shown interest in
working in partnership with us as a socially responsible
business venture.
“One
of our current objectives is to invite exceptional
community and world leaders to become board members
and shareholders of Charity Group. To date, we have
created an exceptional board and it continues to
grow. Board member's have the ability to bring value
to the Company through individual expertise,
resources, relationships, credibility and
operational, financial and technical knowledge.
Board members also may be provided an equity
interest in the Company”
said Scott O. Talbot,
Chairman, Charity Group, LLC.
Another Charity Group
objective is to secure additional funding from strategic
investors through the assistance of respected business
leaders and philanthropists of the highest caliber. At
present, we are in conversation with a number of Forbes
Top 100 national and international philanthropists, who
are excited by our unique products and vision.
Ultimately the lead investors will make the Charity
Group, LLC their own legacy and have the ability to
feature their personal causes.
