Invested.in Announces FitFunder.com – A Revolution in Fitness Fundraising for Charity
Los Angeles, July 19, 2011 – Invested.in today announced that they will be launching FitFunder.com, a site that will allow its users to create personal fitness fundraisers for charity.
FitFunder will utilize Invested.in’s versatile and cutting edge crowdfunding platform and RunKeeper’s recently launched HealthGraph API, providing users with a simple and easy way to create, promote, and manage their personal fitness fundraising campaigns. Invested.in’s platform is a social networking hub devoted to raising funds and gaining support for fundraising projects. Utilizing RunKeeper’s HealthGraph API will allow FitFunder to automatically monitor a user’s fitness goals and update their followers and donors.
Invested.in is currently signing up interested charities and non-profits at http://fitfunder.com. There is no commitment required on the side of the non-profit, only that they accept the funds pledged by FitFunder users.
“The Invested.in platform was built to empower communities, allowing them to ‘invest’ in their own future.” Says Alon Goren, President of Invested.in. “As avid RunKeeper users, we’re so excited to be utilizing RunKeeper’s HealthGraph API to not only raise money for charity, but also to help motivate us all to reach our fitness goals.”
“We are excited that FitFunder.com is now integrated with the Health Graph. Fundraising and fitness go hand-in-hand, and it is great that RunKeeper users will now have the ability to put their miles to work to help raise money for important causes.” Said Jason Jacobs, CEO of RunKeeper
