Mountain View, Calif. (Sept. 1, 2010) - Shmoop (www.shmoop.com)
Shmoop also announced that it will donate 20% of its proceeds to student groups or Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs) who promote its Online Test Prep services as a group fundraiser. (Student government? Aye! Cheerleading squad? Yay! Chess Club? Check! Swim Team? They’ll get back to you when their heads are above water.)
“It’s tragic to see so many schools forced to scale back extra-curricular activities due to strapped budgets,” said Ellen Siminoff, CEO of Shmoop. “Shmoop wants to help keep student activities alive. Shmoop’s Test Prep is the 21st century bake sale (without carbs) or magazine sale (that’s friendlier to brain cells and trees).”
