TRANSPARENT CAUSE MARKETING

We fully endorse and subscribe to the FIVE Best Practices for Transparent Cause Marketing which clearly and prominently discloses key information about this campaign, including an example of the specific amount that will be donated to charity from each purchase.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROMOTION

We have been in business over 36 years, specializing in niche market business directories in-print and online. We have worked with many non-profit organizations over the years to assist in effective fundraising. In recent years, we have seen the positive impact of cause marketing in the community.
ReachOutDirectory.com makes a REAL difference.
ReachOutDirectory.com is an online, digital business directory where consumers can quickly identify and patronize those businesses that have come together and included their business listing in an effort to support this important cause...helping kids in our community.

WE ALLOW CONSUMERS TO EASILY DETERMINE DONATION AMOUNT

Participating businesses help to allow us to generously donate to children’s charities. It's this simple: Include your business listing and 20% of net proceeds go directly to children's charities. These donations from ReachOutDirectory.com continue year after year, and there is no cap or limit to the amount donated by Reach Out Directory to children's charities.

WE ARE TRANSPARENT ABOUT WHAT IS NOT APPARENT

Our goal at ReachOutDirectory.com is to create a powerful business community which continues to grow year after year, into one of the most formidable financial resources for children's charities. Business members who include their business listing can proudly display the Reach Out Directory logo on their web sites, in their marketing materials, and at their business locations. These business professionals have taken a stand to make a difference in the lives of children in our community.

WE ENSURE TRANSPARENCY IN SOCIAL MEDIA

Our Social Media pages clearly express our mission and goals for children's charities. Our Social Media reaches people who have a heart for the cause. They are encouraged to patronize member businesses who are helping us fund this cause. When consumers patronize the Reach Out Directory business advertisers, this helps empower these companies to continue to include their business year-after-year.

HOW MUCH IS BEING RAISED? GUARANTEED FUNDING

ReachOutDirectory.com connects business professionals who are focused on helping us fund causes that reach out to kids in our community. These companies are stepping forward, joining together, and advertising their businesses, which helps us make a difference. Reach Out Directory guarantees to donate a minimum of $10.00 per Premium Listing purchased at full rate. $10.00 minimum donations will be paid to children's charities following the end of each month sales cycle. At the end of each year, a detailed accounting will be conducted determining the net profits of all ReachOutDirectory listing sales. If there is an amount greater than the $10.00 minimum due to fulfill this commitment, the balance will be donated in full at that time. This amount will not exceed the maximum amount of 20% of net proceeds. Net proceeds are the net profits received from paid Premium advertising packages after deducting business expenses. There is no limit to the amount of the donations that will be provided to children's charities each year. These donations are a renewable resource to help fund children charites when advertisers renew and purchase their online listings each year. Donations from Premium advertising packages will continue year after year.

Advertisers, members of the Reach Out community of businesses, recognize that we are not fundraising for children's charites, we have simply made a commitment to support children's charites as our business mission. Advertisers also recognize that they are purchasing advertising in an online business directory at a price established by Reach Out Directory, which the advertiser considers to be a fair and equitable rate, and they further understand that they are not donating any part of these advertising dollars to any charity. There is no tax deductible contribution received from the advertiser, however the advertising expense should be a 100% tax deduction as a business expense.

It is the intention of Reach Out Directory, that all funds we donate will be expended and/or distributed consistent with the original intent and wishes of the advertiser. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, our Organization does reserve the right to use and/or distribute the funds raised in whatever manner we deem appropriate if, after reasonable review, our Organization determines, at our sole discretion, that such funds are needed and/or would be better distributed to other children's charities in furtherance of our charitable mission.
