Tim Herold

Founder/CEO

Tim Herold is a long-time company owner and entrepreneur with deep roots in Arizona, California, and Nevada. During my business years, I began giving my time and abilities with local NGOs in the Southwest. He witnessed these agencies' financial troubles as grants came and went, new funding sources had to be located, and energy were shifted away from services and into practically continual fundraising.

I first came up with the GiveWrite concept in 2005. I saw an opportunity to help NGOs and community groups generate finances, spread the news about their causes, and deliver excellent items to their donors: print-on-demand greeting cards. I conducted research and discovered that, despite the widespread use of email, ecards, texting, and internet commerce, individuals continue to buy and mail greeting cards. In the United States, the greeting card industry generates $9 billion in revenue annually. I created a web-based platform for greeting card creation and ordering, and connected it with instant, high-quality printing and fulfillment, as well as quick delivery via the US Postal Service. GiveWrite was founded, and it can now provide NGOs with a new opportunity to increase their budgets, continue to serve their communities, and convey smiles through greeting cards, as well as additional revenue streams.

Hobbies include team roping, fishing, and supporting most sports.
