No More Melted Candy Bars -- SoftwareForKids.com Announces Innovative School Fundraising Program

San Mateo, CA (PRWeb) February 9, 2007 -- SoftwareForKids.com, an online software shop that features educational software for children, is now offering an innovative way for schools, clubs, and service organizations to raise funds without the headaches associated with traditional fundraising methods.

Rather than forcing students and parents to peddle melted candy bars, cheap gift-wrap or buckets of cookie dough, the SoftwareForKids.com fundraising program requires no upfront investment or door-to-door sales. Upon completion of a simple application, each affiliate school, club or service organization will receive 10% of any referred sales.

The idea for creating this novel approach to school fundraising came from the personal experience of SoftwareForKids.com founder Amir Hojjatnia. Hojjatnia explains, "I first created the children's software site in 2002 after having difficulty finding a single source for fun and educational software for my young son, Christopher." Over the years, the popularity of the site has grown, with sales peaking during the school year months. Hojjatnia continues, "Since many parents purchase software from SoftwareForKids.com to help their child's school performance, I decided to find a way to help the parents help their child's school at the same time."

Taking advantage of the Affiliate Program is quick and easy and generates a 10% commission on each sale. Interested schools and organizations can fill out a short online form at http://www.SoftwareForKids.com/affiliate.html, and receive instant approval. As an added convenience, a flyer with the name and fundraising code of the school or organization will be automatically generated and ready for printing and sending home in folders and backpacks. Parents do their part by purchasing software from http://www.SoftwareForKids.com, and entering their fundraising code at checkout, automatically sending 10% of their purchase to their designated school.

Offering exceptional software programs from well-known educational publishers such as Knowledge Adventure, Learning Company, Disney Interactive, Scholastic, and Encore Software, the SoftwareForKids.com Web site assists parents in choosing the best program for their children. "Each product we offer has been carefully reviewed and chosen on the basis of its educational value and fun factor," stated Hojjatnia. "As an organization we believe deeply in the value of education, and are excited about the potential of this new school fundraising option."
