Communication Connections is the Charity of the Week on Frendo's fee-free platform for giving

MILWAUKEE, WI, Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Frendo announces Communication Connections as Charity of the Week.  Frendo is the first-ever fee-free donation platform for donors, fundraisers and charities that eliminates all fees to charities so every penny donated ends up in the pocket of the charity and not in the pockets of credit card companies and online merchants.

For one week starting on September 5th, frendo will feature Communication Connections as Charity of the Week.  Frendo will implement an extensive social media campaign to promote the many accomplishments of Communication Connections and educate about how frendo's fee-free donations can help provide early intervention for children with hearing loss.  Communication Connections has chosen one of their biggest sponsors, Purse-Les, as their Featured Fundraiser of the Week.  Headed by company owner Leslie Van Dorf, they are committed to the mission and thrilled to introduce frendo to their dedicated supporters and reach their goal of raising 5,000 fee-free dollars.

"We are honored to have been chosen as a featured charity on frendo's platform," says Allison Schley, Founder of Communication Connections.  "We all get dealt something in life, and it is how we handle it that makes us who we are.  That's why our mission at Communication Connections is to educate, empower, and liberate families and children with hearing loss," Schley adds.  "Frendo can help us connect with a new standard of giving so we can give people the services they need to achieve their maximum potential."

The team behind Frendo built a stable technology that is safe and secure and gives people the chance to donate as much or as little as they want to their favorite charities fee-free and on a regular basis.  In 2009, an estimated $30 billion dollars was donated online, yet due to various fees which range from 1.75% to 8% over $1 billion in donations didn't reach charities.  Frendo is revolutionizing people's giving habits by creating free marketing and promotional campaigns for charities predominantly through social media rails.  Frendo turns charities' donors into fundraisers through instant connectivity to Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, etc. and helps charities reach fundraising goals with an endless cycle of giving through frendo.

"We are proud of our unique platform for giving and are thrilled to work with Communication Connections as we aim to further their mission and help change the lives of children and families not just within their community but throughout the world," says Andy Quinn, Co-Founder and CEO of Frendo.

Frendo provides an online social platform that enables people to send donations fee-free and securely to their favorite charities.  This platform is designed for people who are connected by their common desire to take action and provide funding for worthy charities.  Frendo acquired Broker Processing Services, Inc. in 2010, a company with seven years of experience in safe funds transfer.  With offices in Fairfield, CT and Calgary, AB, Frendo looks to be a leading source of online connections for charities and their donors.
