In 2016, I traveled to Dubai and saw some amazing 24K Gold Cards. After buying many of them as gifts, I decided to have a deck custom made with my alma mater, Florida A & M University, printed on them. There were so many Rattlers that loved them that I decided to purchase in bulk. They sold quickly and that inventory evolved into a variety of HBCUs, fraternities and sororities, marching bands, highlights in Black Culture, and many more to come. In 2020, I made a leap of faith and left Corporate America to pursue this opportunity full time.
In 2021, our organization recognized a need for an entity to primarily focus on raising money specifically for HBCU local chapters. That idea has evolved into FundraiseMePlease and we are proud to boast that, in a short time, we have partnered with many organizations to raise tens of thousands of dollars for organizations that were tired of conventional fundraising.
