Simplur, Inc.

Simplur is a social network changing online giving for political and non-profit causes through crowdfunding.  Our platform matches users by interests and goals and allows them to gather up for more influence and accountability through aggregated giving.  If a cause is important to one person, it's likely important to millions of people.  If those millions give separately, their voice won't be heard.  If they give together, their voice will be overwhelming.  Simplur makes that possible in an easy and intuitive way.

For political giving, this process is an absolute first.  It will level the playing field for citizens who care deeply about our country but don't have millions of dollars to put toward their goals.  Our outside counsel, Trevor Potter, is the former Chairman of the Federal Election Commission, and is frequently seen as a contributor for The Colbert Report.

For political and charitable causes, we offer extremely easy set up and free accounts.  While online giving has exploded in recent years, it's incredibly inefficient and the market is horribly fragmented.  By gathering people with like interests, we will create a community that is easily accessible and highly responsive to causes that make a difference in our world.

We are open for giving to nearly 1 million charitable causes, and we will release the major crowdfunding feature along with the chance to give to political candidates in the spring 2014.  

Simplur was founded by Craig Wilcox, an experienced entrepreneur and online marketing expert.  In recent years, he's led an online marketing agency (acquired in 2012), and worked with Microsoft and MapQuest with budgets and P/L responsibility of over $50 million annually.
