The power of the crowd has proven to be particularly useful when it comes to fundraising
online. [Founder Institute](http://www.founderinstitute.com) Startup [CauseVox](http://www.causevox.com)
is launching a SaaS platform that allows non-profits to crowdsource fundraising.

A white-label platform, CauseVox allows organizations to launch a customized, charity-
branded site on their own domain and begin accepting donations. Tools include a 
simple editor to create fundraising destinations, the ability to create fundraising
pages for supporters, socialize fundraising efforts, and more.

While non-profits have a 30 day free trial to use the software, CauseVox will charge
a small subscription fee and will take 7.5 percent of all donations. We have an 
exclusive offer for TC readers to use Causevox for free for six months. You can 
use the promo code “techcrunch” to get 6 more months free during billing.

and[RestoreNYC](http://blog.causevox.com/2010/10/21/how-restorenyc-raised-over-130000),
raise over $400,000 in donations.

CauseVox isn’t the first startup to launch a crowd-funding platform for organizations;
the startup faces competition from Facebook app [Causes](http://www.causes.com/about),
[Nadanu](http://techcrunch.com/2010/06/16/nadanus-fundraising-platform-streamlines-e-giving),
and [GoFundMe.](http://techcrunch.com/2010/05/10/gofundme-simplifies-group-fundraising)
