I spent 60 days rebuilding HelloFund from scratch.
Not a redesign. The whole thing.
The last straw was an organization that sent 30+ emails because their numbers wouldn’t reconcile. We reviewed it, and our only real option was to apologize. I decided I was done apologizing for software.
So now check in takes a guest about 20 seconds on their phone. Every donation cross checks against Stripe automatically. There’s a flat annual fee instead of a cut of what you raise. And we will never ask your donors to tip us at checkout.
Simple enough for a PTA raising $2K. Built for a gala raising $1M in one night.
It’s live 🎉
