About This Business

This firm raises funds for an organization called United Children's Fund located at 1747 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington DC. (PLEASE CONTACT THE COUNCIL OF BBBs FOR A REPORT ON THAT ORGANIZATION). The BBB requested that Good Cause Marketing provide information regarding its ad for employment as a management trainee. Specifically, we requested information about the offer as well as a list of ten employees who made _ $50,000 within their first year of employment as claimed in the ad. The firm did not provide the BBB with sufficient information to substantiate its claim. Based upon information received by the BBB, the identification badge used by employees of Good Cause Marketing prominently displays the logo of United Children's Fund as well as the name, address and phone number of the organization. The BBB believes this has the capacity to be misleading in that potential donors may believe the solicitor works or is a volunteer for United Children's Fund rather than an employee of the fundraising firm. The BBB requested a copy of Good Cause Marketing's fundraising script. The firm refused to provide a copy.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
