SendAFriend, a social media sensation and popular online store, announces that it has donated over one million dollars to nonprofit organizations across America since its founding in 2018. Organizations ranging from women's shelters to cancer research programs have benefited from the company's Spread the Love Fund which donates 10% of all sales.
Customers on SendAFriend.co send personalized stuffed animal care packages to loved ones — a convenient service during a global pandemic. The company also operates the GiveAFriend donation program that has sent over 10,000 care packages to children in hospitals or in need of emotional support.
SendAFriend was founded to spread love to customers, recipients, and nonprofits. As an 18 year old entrepreneur, I could not have imagined the good we would be able to do. Every one of our customers has actually made the world a brighter place."
