The Company

Why did we create NoiseMaker?

'Cause nobody else did!

Our team brings together decades of nonprofit, marketing, tech, and software expertise to deliver a one-of-a-kind platform to ministries and nonprofits.

NoiseMaker leverages a nonprofit's existing trusted volunteers, so they become Social Media Ambassadors (“NoiseMakers”) and make a lot of noise for their favorite cause.

NoiseMaker equips nonprofits with their own Ambassador Program, and best of all…the new army of “NoiseMakers” will get rewarded for their fundraising and "friendraising" efforts through our flexible reward system.

Buckle up and get ready to blast off into the future! Because NoiseMaker is going to revolutionize the way nonprofits raise funds, friends and awareness in a more organic and cost-effective way!
