AUSTIN, Tex. - Pet owners and animal rescue organizations have discovered Fundable.com as a way to generate funds for suffering dogsand cats. Fundable.com is a web site that provides simple online fundraising tools. To use Fundable.com, a person creates a fundraising page by providing a description and entering how much money needs to be raised. Next, the person invites his or her supporters to visit the page and pledge money. Once enough pledges for a fundraising page have been secured,Fundable.com turns them into real payments and sends the total to the creator. If a fundraising page expires before reaching its total in pledges, Fundable deletes all pledges and never charges money. This allows people to participate in a fundraiser without worrying about what others will do. No one pays until and unless everyone else makes a pledge. To date, hundreds of pet owners and rescue groups have used Fundable to help injured or sick animals. For example, Best Friend Pet Adoption, an animal rescue organization in North Carolina, collected $640 from supporters to help Tirk, a bulldog suffering from anemia. A non-profit group called "Homeless Animal Rescue Team" secured $550 from supporters to cover the medical expenses of Angel, a pit bull recently rescued from a high kill shelter. Since 2005, Fundable has been helping people raise money for causes. The company has been featured on NPR, BBC World Service, and other magazines. Fundable's unique approach to fundraising allows anyone to collect money online for any purpose. ---- Fundable.com
