Carousell launches #SayYesToBlessings to empower local non-profit organizations offering up to $2 million in advertising support

Carousell announces the launch of #SayYesToBlessings, to help empower non-profit organisations in digitalising and amplifying their causes online. This initiative is a part of the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre’s National Day 2021 Campaign, ‘Together, Singapore Cares’, which champions the spirit of doing good in the community.

Each package, valued at over $1500, comprises a year of CarouBiz Charities Package and $1200 worth of Carousell coins (marketing credits) to purchase additional ads and promotional tools on Carousell.

Through this initiative, users will also be able to make direct donations to these organisations, with 100% of the donation going directly to them.

With the CarouBiz Charities Package, these organisations will have access to tools such as video listings, profile cover photo for branding, premium badge for credibility. Each of them will be allocated a dedicated Client Success Manager who helps to provide digital marketing support, guides on how to maximise these tools and best practices. These resources will allow the charitable organisations to showcase their causes like a virtual showroom, all within their Carousell profile.
