Not meeting WP:GNG. The sources are scarce, self-referencing is too heavy (50% references go to raise5 website). Several brief mentions in huffpost are not enough too. Assirian cat (talk) 10:32, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- raise5 website now appears to be of another company. its says: Raise5.com is a data-driven platform which provides better online shopping experience. The wikipedia page says: Raise5 is an organization that allows individuals and groups to fundraise for charities and non-profits through micro-volunteering.

- Delete: Looking at Wayback machine, the website of the Raise5 described in this article was still showing people offering services until mid 2017, when it disappeared, then a distinct shopping site with a different logo commenced with their website in April 2019. The former start-up won a "Screw Business As Usual" start-up competition in 2012, rewarded by an African trip the following year with Richard Branson [1], but I don't think that or the associated start-up publicity is evidence of attained notability.
