“There are sites which allow you to save for college, support your kid’s school, or donate to non-profits, but none allowed you to do all three,” said Noah Mapstead, Co-Founder and CEO of CashSurfers, Inc.

“There are sites which allow you to save for college, support your kid’s school, or donate to non-profits, but none allowed you to do all three,” said Noah Mapstead, Co-Founder and CEO of CashSurfers, Inc. “We wanted to create a site that people could use no matter where they were in life. Their earnings would never be lost since they could easily distribute them wherever they desired.”

DonationTree.com is the only company to distribute earnings each month when they reach $20 via check or direct deposit. Other companies distribute every quarter and/or have much higher minimums. DonationTree.com also allows members to contribute their earnings to other members, for example; grandparents can contribute to their grandchildren’s college savings plan or school. In addition, members and organizations can earn a three-percent commission by referring new members.

To make it easy on members, DonationTree.com works with any college savings plan that supports direct deposit, regardless of who manages it. In addition over 130,000 schools and the top nationwide non-profits are already in their database.

DonationTree.com is a welcome addition to the marketplace. Simplified purchasing and fast turnaround on purchase rebates make using DonationTree.com a pleasure. Members never lose their earnings and can save for college, support their kid’s school, or donate to a non-profit.

DonationTree.com is operated by CashSurfers, Inc, a privately held California corporation. Started in December 1999, CashSurfers operates one of the longest running incentive marketing websites; servicing over 1.5 million members worldwide. Their website infrastructure is capable of handling over 1 billion hits monthly.
