RedLadder Achieves Milestone Donation to CaringBridge through Innovative 'Trade Ladder' Model
Transforming Everyday Items into Unlimited, Unrestricted Funding for Charitable Organizations
On November 20. RedLadder presented its first monetized trade ladder contribution to Tia Newcomer, CEO of CaringBridge. This unrestricted funding, which CaringBridge can use for any purpose in support of its mission, began with a simple commemorative Christmas plate donated by a supporter. Over seven trades of increasing value, the plate evolved into a French horn, which was then sold to enable this impactful contribution.
“CaringBridge did not have to do anything to receive this funding from RedLadder,” shared Joel Ackerman, Founder of RedLadder, “Our trade ladder did the work, and this contribution reflects our commitment to providing charitable organizations with significant, meaningful, no-strings-attached funding support.” Currently, 19 active trade ladders are designated to benefit CaringBridge, with many more expected as supporters rally to help.
Tia Newcomer expressed her enthusiasm for the program, stating, “RedLadder has a fresh and innovative approach to philanthropy. With over 320,000 people on the CaringBridge platform daily, we’re reliant on donations for our organization to operate, and we’re grateful to RedLadder and its community of supporters for coming together to make this possible.”
This milestone marks the beginning of RedLadder’s national expansion, with plans to bring substantial, unrestricted funding opportunities to charitable organizations across the United States and beyond. Based in the Twin Cities, RedLadder is dedicated to scaling its innovative model to maximize impact for all charitable organizations, regardless of size or location.
