Team

 

Sam Ahmed: Founder. Brings over fifteen years of business development and client relations experience spanning the fine arts, hospitality, and financial services industries to the table. Additionally, she has experience in marketing, sales, budgeting, and operations.

Business model

Free to consumers. We will generate revenue through licensing, subscriptions, and advertising.

 

Competitive advantage


Founder use to be a cancer patient so has some knowledge of patient needs. On the other hand as a cancer survivor the founder identifies with other survivors with the need to help cancer patients.

 

Given the number of individuals out of work in 2010, we have a unique opportunity to engage those who would not traditionally volunteer, to volunteer. It gives us a chance to build a base on top of the foundation of traditional volunteers.
