StayClassy is a fast-growing San Diego-based startup that develops an online fundraising product used by thousands of Nonprofit organizations around the world.
The company was founded in 2006 by a couple of friends who were looking to fundraise for charity, but didn’t know how to get started. They envisioned a platform that made it easy for Nonprofits to turn their supporters into fundraisers; and so, they set off to build one. After years of testing their concept with dozens of Nonprofits, their initial idea has evolved into what is now an industry-leading online fundraising solution for Charities, Foundations, Churches, Schools, Clubs and more.
StayClassy’s founders were selected by Businessweek as one of the top 5 most promising social entrepreneurs in America in 2011. StayClassy was also selected by MIT Sloan School as one of the top three startup companies in the U.S at their 12th annual Venture Capital Conference in 2009. The company has also been featured on CNN, AOL, Huffington Post, TechCrunch, Mashable, and more. In 2009, Scot Chisholm, the company’s CEO was chosen as one of the top 40 young leaders under 40 years in San Diego.
StayClassy is also the host of the Classy Awards, the largest philanthropic awards show in the Country.
