Fundraising Opportunity for Schools, Churches, and Non-Profit Organizations

Using the Power of Philanthropy to make our world a better place!

Last winter was the final time I "sell" something to raise funds for my children’s school, church, or favorite non-profit organization. My son and I sold over a thousand dollars worth of cost inflated, fattening popcorn that nobody really wanted. We drove from house to house and delivered canisters of popcorn. Often, neighbors were gone and the collection of money was tedious. I felt sorry for the woman in charge of the accounting, inventory, and distribution of a mini-Amazon.com selling unwanted popcorn to friends, family, and neighbors with hearts of gold for their local community organizations. This scenario will diminish with the launch of MyFundRazor.org!

MyFundRazor.org will create your own e-commerce portal that sells the exact same items with the exact same prices found on major e-commerce websites like Amazon.com, Yahoo!, Buy.com, Sony.com, and other brand name suppliers. Because Internet commerce is shifting to a horizontal distribution of wealth via affiliate and associates programs, companies like Yahoo! makes billions of dollars yearly by directing traffic to major retailers and distributors without packaging or shipping a single product!

Why does MyFundRazor.org share revenues with local churches, schools, and non-profit organizations without upfront costs? Because MyFundRazor.org is owned and operated by MedRounds Publications, Inc. (http://www.medrounds/) and our mission is POWERED BY PHILANTHROPY. MedRounds Publications, Inc. was created by academic entrepreneurs to use advertising and marketing revenue to support FREE academic publishing. Using similar marketing and advertising paradigms, MyFundRazor.org generates new revenue streams for the “fund razing” activities of churches, schools, and non-profit organizations across the United States. MyFundRazor.org will give the organizations a 70% commission for recruiting their supporters to use their e-commerce portals. Our goal is to siphon some of the $100+ Billion Dollar revenue in e-commerce back to local organizations requiring funds to support their missions. Instead of children and volunteers selling wrapping paper, candy, magazines, and popcorn, the kids and parents can now pass around a business card with their own e-commerce portal for their organization.

Our motto is “SHOP YOUR FAVORITE BRANDS, LEND A HELPING HAND! “ MyFundRazor.org provides a way for local communities to utilize the power of e-commerce to promote shopping with social responsibility. Supporters of an organization can purchase everyday items, such as electronics, iPods, books, vitamins, insurance policies, TVs, and clothing, to support their local community. This idea brings community to a vast cyberspace where people often feel insignificant. Additionally, if supporters sign up for a new credit card ($40/card), register for an eBay ID ($12/registration), or sign-up for a free web service ($1.50/registration at MyYearBook.com), then these activities generate revenue for the organization. Imagine a 1000 member organization signing up for the platinum Discover card! We have published a PowerPoint Presentation to explain this process (slides).

MyFundRazor.org supports parents who dedicated their lives to raising a family. We will pay stay-at-home moms and dads to be entrepreneurs by promoting “fund razing” activities to support their local churches, schools, and organizations. Each local sales representative will receive 5% commission for each organization joining our program, every year. Sales representatives can generate six figure salaries by MOTIVATING, ENCOURAGING, and SUPPORTING their community schools and programs. The more money raised, the more money generated for everyone involved!

In the first week of launching, MyFundRazor.org has helped six organizations develop their own e-commerce portals. MyFundRazor.org is in the process of signing up organizations totaling 100,000 members of buying power. One organization is a church of 20,000 members.

This church may generate 5000 transactions a month at an average of $50 per sale (varies considering what people buy). This will generate sales of $250,000 monthly and $3,000,000 sales yearly. At the average commission rate of 10%-20% of the total sale (some companies pay up to 50% of commission), this level of group purchasing power will generate $300,000 to $600,000 gross revenues. MyFundRazor.org then pays out:

1) $210,000 to $420,000 is paid to the church in one year! That's a generous return for any organization.

2) $15,000 to $30,000 paid to the sales representative in one year... AND the representative gets this as long as the organization keeps using their e-commerce portals. As the representatives help other organizations, the total amount paid back to a local community increase as well as the compensation to the representative. This is the perfect philanthropic positive feedback loop! Interested sales representatives can e-mail us.

MyFundRazor.org has the goal of being the PREMIERE home shopping network on the Internet that is driven by philanthropy and a desire to contribute to social responsibility.

Visit some of our current organizations’ Virtual Malls:

• Center for Macular Degeneration – University of Iowa, dedicated to eye research.
• Church of Living Water – 3500 member church in Tacoma, Washington.

We will create a customized web portal that will match your organization’s banner and color at no cost to you or your organization. It’s hard to beat FREE IT and web design service. We can implement Blogging capabilities for self-publishing of photos, notices, and community information.

Through philanthropic shopping we will create a better tomorrow, one organization at a time!

Melding Traditional Publishing Models with Innovation

What do you get when combining elements of traditional publishing and Internet innovation?

• Professional Copy Editing
• Academic Editors
• Expert Authors
• Google’s Blogger Technology
  

The products produced are peer-reviewed academic journals and medical textbooks that are published with Blogger technology. The educational material is open-access and free to the 6.5 billion readers in the world. We refer to it as "academic publishing with Blogger".

This is exactly what MedRounds has done, and MedRounds will continue to produce high-quality educational materials utilizing Internet technologies to meld text with sound and video.

We proudly announce the release of Cataract Surgery for Greenhorns by Thomas Oetting, MS, MD, Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at the University of Iowa and mentor to future cataract surgeons at one of the top residency training programs in the world. Dr. Oetting’s book addresses the fundamental skills required for cataract surgery and combines his written knowledge with over one hour of narrated surgical videos.

Furthermore, MedRounds is teaming up with senior editors in the scientific and medical community to launch a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal, The Journal of Ocular Pathology.

As the Internet becomes more accessible to users around the globe, MedRounds will be there to deliver high quality academic materials to everyone’s home.

Some have asked us why the name “MedRounds”? Students at The Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine are taught that the first hospital rooms were built in a circular arrangement within the famous Hopkins Dome. Johns Hopkins was the first medical school to require a four year college degree before matriculation and implemented the first post-graduate residency training program for physicians. When the medical students and residents followed their attending physicians during teaching rounds, they walked from bed to bed, in a circular fashion. Hence, the term “medical rounds” and “teaching rounds” have been used synonymously with medical education for over 100 years.

It is the mission at MedRounds Publications to provide reliable, high-quality teaching materials to students, patients, and physicians at low or no cost.
