Press Release: August 30, 2010
Stroudsburg, PA – HelpMe2Stop today announced it has joined The Hope Process, the charitable division of IRN Payment Systems, a program that has become a paradigm in non-traditional fundraising and will handle Help Me 2 Stop’s credit card processing to provide the organization with a steady stream of donations.
“Joining The Hope Process lets our organization receive a rebate on our credit card processing, and provides us with a constant discount on our processing service“, said Charlene Blacer, Executive Director of HelpMe2Stop and owner of multiple salons in PA. “Our next step is to introduce the benefits of The Hope Process to other salons, local businesses and our colleagues throughout the state, which will be easy. When these establishments’ sign on to the program, they immediately start generating funds for HelpMe2Stop by literally doing the same thing they do everyday! This new non-traditional fundraising method will transform our once annual donors to regular monthly donors with no additional out of pocket cost.”
The Hope Process was designed for one purpose – to provide charitable organizations with a steady stream of recurring monthly donations. Created by Dino Sgueglia, founder of IRN Payment Systems – a leader in the credit card processing industry, The Hope Process entitles merchants and businesses to a rebate based on their credit card processing fees, which are then donated by the merchant or business to a charity of their choice.
“Any merchant who enrolls in The Hope Process will have access to an online account to track and monitor the funds that accrue through the program. By the simple click of a button, the merchant will know exactly how much is donated to their cause,” says Sgueglia. “Additionally, Help Me 2 Stop will have login access to our interactive state-of-the-art website, www.thehopeprocess.com, to view incoming donations.”
HelpMe2Stop raises money for those financially disadvantaged and suffering from Trichotillomania, a hair pulling disorder. Charlene and her team strive to assist affected individuals in ultimately defeating the disorder. She helps train those affected to stop pulling their hair, and she also helps grow the hair back through a variety of treatments.
“This innovative program will help us continue to spread awareness about Trichotillomania. More so, we will be able to dedicate more time to our cause rather than fundraising ventures. We are proud to be a part of this revolutionary program” concluded Blacer.
