The idea for #GivingTuesday was first announced in October 2012, a month before the first Giving Tuesday was held. #GivingTuesday is described as a worldwide celebration of generosity and hope where charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give. The event is now widely supported by organizations of all sizes.

"The amount of money donated on #GivingTuesday has doubled each year since 2012, and is predicted to double again in 2014," explains RallyUp Founder and CEO Steve Bernat. "RallyUp helps nonprofits take advantage of this opportunity. Our support team is ready to assist with the setup, management and promotion of a variety of online charity fundraising initiatives."

RallyUp is a comprehensive online platform for running fundraising campaigns and events. While competitors including Indiegogo, Razoo and GoFundMe offer standard donation pages, RallyUp provides support for all types of fundraising activities including events, auctions, raffles, sales, run/walk fundraisers and capital campaigns as well as robust crowdfunding.

RallyUp also provides fully-integrated support for cash and check contributions in addition to credit cards and PayPal. The system has special support for 501(c)(3) organizations including the ability to produce customizable receipts with notice of tax-deductibility. Donors can create their own login to the system to reprint receipts or view their contribution history.

RallyUp's founders have a long history of involvement with nonprofit fundraising and its associated ups and downs. Most members of RallyUp's staff actively participate in the nonprofit community, giving the organization a unique perspective into the needs of charities.
