Causecast was founded in 2008 by technology and social entrepreneur Ryan Scott, based on a desire to give back and his belief that his highest impact could be created by providing tools and technologies that empower nonprofits be more successful. He also foresaw the rise of cause marketing and a need for technology to help brands, agencies, publishers and platforms connect with causes and track the impact of their cause marketing and corporate social responsibility efforts.

From this vision came Causecast, the premier cause integration platform for nonprofits and brands. Causecast provides the technology, data and services required to connect nonprofits and businesses, enabling them to leverage one another’s strengths to further their respective social and fiscal goals.

Causecast offers nonprofits free distributable fundraising tools, donation processing, an extensive resource library and access to the campaigns and CSR programs of its corporate clients. The result is higher supporter activation, enhanced fundraising capabilities and increased awareness of their message.

Causecast provides hundreds of organizations with the tools to inspire, engage and activate their supporters, such as a personal fundraising platform for National Forensic League’s Give Youth A Voice program. Other partner nonprofits include Amnesty International, Invisible Children, International Medical Corps, Kiva, Charity:Water and Save The Children.

For its corporate clients, Causecast delivers technology to engage employees and activate consumers by incorporating relevant nonprofit donation and volunteer opportunities of its nonprofits into their sites, across campaigns and throughout organizations. The company’s Volunteer Tracking and Rewards technology provides a direct way to measure the impact of cause marketing. And its Cause Integration Profiles give companies a way to showcase the results of their CSR and cause marketing initiatives.

From creating the Huffington Post IMPACT and Education sections, to building AARP’s Create the Good platform, producing Ben Stiller’s Stillerstrong campaign, John Legend’s Show Me Campaign and powering Virgin Mobile’s volunteer rewards programs, Causecast is leveraging technology, cause expertise and deep nonprofit relationships to authentically connect causes with companies’ interests.

Through its focus on technology and its extensive cause industry expertise, Causecast continues to grow as an powerful agent for change, helping responsible brands and nonprofit organizations achieve measurable impact through cause-integrated solutions.

Causecast is a privately held company based in Culver City, California, in the Helms Bakery district.
