Help us Help Non-profits by Funding us through RocketHub Crowd Funding

June 5, 2013 - PRLog -- Peninsula Concepts (http://www.rockethub.com/projects/27020-help-us-help-non-profits) has partnered with Restaurant.com, the leading provider of restaurant savings nationwide, to launch our “Special Offer” for non-profit organizations. Non-profits now, by simply placing an affiliate banner on their website, have the opportunity to recognize and thank their volunteers, members, friends, and donors with the same $100 Restaurant.com Gift Cards used by Wyndham Hotels, United Airlines, Orbitz, and Staples to reward their loyal clients… but at a cost to their members of only $20!  That’s a savings of $80!  

How would you like to pay as little as $20 for a $100 restaurant bill?  That’s what Restaurant.com eGift Cards offer. Great deals, right now, at thousands of restaurants across the country. In fact, Restaurant.com eGift Cards are immediately redeemable online at Restaurant.com for gift certificates to more than 18,000 restaurants nationwide.  So whether it’s a participating restaurant nearby, or a vacation destination far away, this “Special Offer” allows members and friends of non-profit organizations to dine on their time, while choosing from thousands of participating restaurants!  

But best of all, non-profit organizations benefit every time their members save, because Peninsula Concepts donates 50% every eGift Card purchase ($10) to the non-profit organizations.  

Peninsula Concept’s “Special Offer” is a natural extension of a vision that has been successful for both consumer and restaurant industry partners for more than a decade in the online deal space.  It is designed to complement the dining experience, and support Restaurant.com’s brand promise to offer consumers the best dining deals, while providing every non-profit organization a wonderful opportunity to say “thank you” to all of the deserving, hard-working, caring, and sometimes under-appreciated members, donors, and friends that forge the  fabric of the national volunteer community.  

We’re already seeing it happen with the National Cherry Festival, the largest festival of its kind, and one of USA Today’s top ten festivals overall, making this “Special Offer” available to all of their volunteers, staff, and friends..   www.cherryfestival.org.  Shortly, 12,000 amateur sports teams will begin making our Peninsula Concepts “Special Offer” available to their team members, families, and friends on their websites.  

And now, you can help us, help the non-profits.  Although we have already paid all of the substantial business development and test market costs out of our own pocket, and we continue to pay the company’s monthly operational costs the same way, we would love to have you help us fund the cost of prepaid Restaurant.com eGift Card PINs that are absolutely needed, and could easily run into tens of thousands of dollars for a single large non-profit organization.  

We are only limited in the size, scope, and number of organizations we can approach, by the amount of dollars contributed.  We have set our RocketHub funding goal at what we believe is a reasonable $25,000.  The reason?  It allows us to get started by being able to purchase approximately 3,000 eGift Card (PINs) from Restaurant.com – enough to satisfy 2-3 modestly sized non-profit organizations.  

What happens if RocketHub contributors “overfund” us?  That’s a good question, and easily answered.  If Peninsula Concepts received $50,000, or even $100,000 in (over) funding, it allows us to purchase 6,000 or even 12,000 Restaurant.com eGift Card PINs – enough to approach even larger non-profit organizations – and more of them.    Conversely, and this is the beauty of our business model, if we raise less than our goal, we simply scale back the number of “Special Offers”  we can make available to non-profit groups, to just a small number at a time.  

Now it’s our turn to reward you – for helping us – help non-profit organizations.  For every $20 you contribute to our company funding, we would like to say “thank you” with a $100 Restaurant.com eGift Card.   If you contribute $100, we’ll send you five (5) $100 eGift Cards.  Increase your contribution to $500, and we’ll send you twenty-five (25) $100 eGift Cards.  It’s a “Win – Win!”  You can help us, but never “out give”, what you’ll receive in return.

So we hope that you will consider the size of the contribution you’d like to make, and enjoy something you love to do…dining out…on us.
