iHelpMy^®

Currently, all products on iHelpMy are limited to those sold by Safe Home Products, however, custom product addition is a new initiative for us. iHelpMy can add new items and make them available only to your store. Inventory/fulfillment details would need to be delt with on a case-by-case basis.

Once you have set up your organization's custom store, it will remain part of the larger iHelpMy website. The URL for your site would look something like this:

iHelpMy.org/yourorganizationname

The page can be set up and organized to your preference.

iHelpMy stores are strictly made to benefit non-profits. If a store is found to benefit an organization that does not qualify as a non-profit, or if the organization is found to no longer exist, the corresponding iHelpMy store will be removed. Please contact us via the "Report Issues" feature to report an organization that should not be eligible for an iHelpMy store.

iHelpMy's goal is to provide consumers with a complete directory of non-profits and corresponding online stores where friends and members of every non-profit can benefit their organization. iHelpMy is a separate company, and is unrelated to the non-profit organizations it benefits. Further, an iHelpMy store is not affiliated with the non-profit organization it is designed to benefit.

iHelpMy stores are created based upon publicly available information about the non-profit organizations to be benefited. To maintain the integrity of the iHelpMy directory, we will promptly remove any store would benefit an organization that is found to be a for-profit company.  Also, we will promptly correct any factual errors that are found.  Please report any errors via iHelpMy's "Report Issues" feature so we can investigate and address them. 

If your organization desires not to participate in the iHelpMy program, please send your "opt-out" request via a letter on company stationery to:

iHelpMy
3578 Perch Drive SE
Iowa City, IA  52240

Upon confirmation that an "opt-out" letter is from the referenced organization, we will process an organization's opt-out request within 14 days of receipt.  If your organization, is considering opting out of iHelpMy, we encourage you to contact us first via sales@ihelpmy.org or 888-944-3572, to find out more about us and the iHelpMy program.  iHelpMy is provided at no cost to or obligation for non-profit organizations.  Also, please feel free to review our rating with the Better Business Bureau here.

Each iHelpMy store has a "Report Issues" link near the top of the page on the right hand side. If you find a problem with the store, the fastest way to have it reviewed is to use this feature. Please use this feature to report factual errors, notifiy us of organizations that are not non-profits or that no longer exist, or to suggest improvements to the iHelpMy.org service.

iHelpMy strives to offer a free and easy way for any non-profit to raise money. There are over 1.5 million non-profits in the U.S. and iHelpMy offers a way for consumers to support all of them.

Organizations like schools, churches, humane societies, and social organizations make our communities better places to live, and iHelpMy provides a platform for members and supporters of any organiztion to give back through their everyday purchases. Many organizations raise money through direct donations or different fundraising events like bake sales or selling candy. These are great ways to raise money, but sometimes even that is not enough. iHelpMy offers a free, easy, and unique way for non-profits to raise money that allows supporters to donate even if they don't have the money to make a direct donation or purchase a novelty item. iHelpMy offers an alternative way for consumers to give back without any "extra" expenses by selling everyday products for the benefit of non-profits. On top of being everyday items, the products for sale are offered at competitive prices so consumers can actually save money while donating to their favorite non-profit!

iHelpMy has built thousands of stores across the country. These stores are pre-loaded with everyday products at competitive prices and can start earning donations immediately. Do you need new cleaning supplies, batteries, light bulbs, or pet products? You can find them and more at any iHelpMy store! Each purchase generates a large, 10% donation so any non-profit can quickly and easily raise funds. Donate to your favorite organization while saving money, everyone wins!

iHelpMy provides a large, 10% margin on every purchase. This flat rate 10% contribution is significantly higher than similar programs created by other companies. Similar programs are created by middle-man corporations that take a cut out of any and all contributions. For instance, if a popular retailer offers a 5% contribution through a similar program, the middle-man corporation may take half of that contribution, leaving the nonprofit with just a 2.5% donation.

iHelpMy was created by Safe Home Products and acts as retailer which allows it to offer a large 10% high contribution. Sales are made directly through iHelpMy and the 10% margin is donated directly to a nonprofit organization. This large margin helps nonprofits raise more money, more quickly. Earnings through iHelpMy add up quickly. For instance, if 50 members purchase $50 in everyday items each month, your organization can raise $3,000 a year!

IHELPMY.ORG BUILDS OVER 400,000 STORES TO AID NON-PROFITS

Over 425,000 Storefronts Will Generate Direct Contributions for Most Non-Profit Organizations Located in the United States

Iowa City, IA – (June 29, 2010) – iHelpMy, a donation-earning platform offered free to non-profits, announced today that it has created over 425,000 separate online stores, each one to benefit a specific non-profit organization somewhere in the United States. Consumer purchases at these stores will generate a donation to the specific organization of 10% of the total order.

iHelpMy was created to allow consumers to give back to non-profit organizations through everyday purchases, according to Barbara Staib, president of Safe Home Products, Inc., the online retailer responsible for iHelpMy.

“People want to support these organizations, but they don't always have extra cash to donate directly,” said Staib.   “We want to make it as simple as possible for people to purchase everyday products and donate to their local humane society, church or school in the process. There's no need for pushy selling campaigns or constant rummage sales. Just buy what you need around the house, and earn money to help make better schools, better humane societies and better churches.”

Consumers can help the non-profit of their choice in two ways. All of the stores created by iHelpMy showcase a number of products that can be browsed and purchased through the individual storefronts accessible from iHelpMy.org. Consumers can also find the organization's code through iHelpMy and use it during checkout at SafeHomeProducts.com to make the same contribution on any purchase from their full catalog of over 20,000 products.

There is no cost or action required on the part of the non-profit organizations in order to receive contributions. However, if a non-profit wants to customize their store iHelpMy provides powerful, easy-to-use tools to do so. Each organization can claim their individual store and customize the design and product selection through a simple interface.

“We plan to continue expanding the iHelpMy program,” said Staib, “We plan to offer stores that benefit every U.S. non-profit organization in the near future.”.
