YouCaring.com Sets Site Records for Free Online Fundraisers and Donations Raised
TAMPA, Fla., April 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- YouCaring.com, a free online fundraising website, set new records for visitors and money raised for its users on Wednesday, April 24, 2013. In one day, the site attracted more than 87,000 unique visitors and raised $181,841.
The increased traffic continues a trend for YouCaring, which has nearly doubled its traffic since February to more than 1 million visitors in April. Site founder Brock Ketcher believes the growth is due to an important feature of the site that sets YouCaring apart from other fundraising websites.

"Our users make all the difference, and we are happy to provide a place where more people can raise the money the need for any cause that they believe in," Ketcher said.
