  • Name A Global Company that Helps Nonprofits and Social Enterprises Do More Good
  • Contest Category
  • Detailed Brief
  • Names should not include these words:
    Aid/Aide, Hands, Funds, Philanthropy, Nonprofit

    Our new company has a strong social mission and it needs an inspiring and cool name.

    We are big fans of nonprofits. We know and admire how hard they work to stretch each dollar into social good. Our company taps into global sourcing to provide solutions that take care of professional and back office functions for nonprofits and social enterprises. We aren't consulting, we are actually doing the program, fundraising and administrative work the nonprofit contracted us to do.

    We are passionate about making our customers’ limited budgets go further in service to results and social mission. When they use our company, nonprofits get high quality professional work done quickly at a low cost. For example, we do their grants, finance and volunteer management so they are freed up to focus their time and money on more strategic work. Our service relieves stress on overworked staff.

    At the same time, we are creating great jobs for professionals in underdeveloped countries. By leveraging the world economy, we help nonprofits do more good and change the world.

    Names should not include these words:
    Aid/Aide, Hands, Funds, Philanthropy, Nonprofit

    Hi All, Thanks for the many entries. Much like other recent contest holders, I feel obliged to comment in the hopes of making this a better tool for entrepreneurs.
    I didn't find a name through this contest for my company. I ended up naming the company something I came up with. I awarded the winner to a name that helped me generate an idea for the company name.
    There were some good ideas but I have some tips/suggestions.
    1. Read the instructions. Most of the names submitted included EXACTLY the words I said I didn't want.
    2. People have to pronounce these names. I got way too many entries that looked like this Oxxgiq. Impossible to say, no meaning, disappointing.
    3. More creativity needed. Most of the names provided were very generic.

    Squadhelp is a really good idea and service for people who need help with naming. I think we all need to pay more attention and try to deliver value to the contest holders.
    Thanks!

    To submit a really great name, but won't take because it was over 14 characters ... You might want to consider changing the domain name length that it will accept. Just a thought/suggestion.

    Hi Everyone, I went through and deleted a bunch of entries that included the words I asked people not to use in their names.
    How about some names that are a little less literal? I'd like to see some things that don't have good or help in the name. Please feel to think more freely. Thanks so much!

    Hi Team, We are getting a lot of entries that you can't say aloud in English. Please pronounce the word to make sure it is possible before submitting. Thanks so much!

    Hi Everyone, there is some good creativity flowing. I guess some didn't see my previous comment. We really aren't interested in a name that has these words:
    Aid/Aide
    Help - we're not helping them do it, we're DOING it. Big difference. There's a lot of help out there for nonprofits that never quite gets the job done.
    Nonprofit - Don't want it in the name since our customers are also social enterprises.
    Funds/Philanthropy - we are not giving away money.

    Thanks so much!

    Some great stuff coming in! Please keep the ideas rolling. A few words I would like to avoid in the name:
    aid/aide
    heart
    nice
    nonprofit

    Otherwise, please feel free to be creative. I really appreciate your entries!
