Immigrant Organizations Across the U.S. Embrace ATMCASH's Dedication to Socially-Minded RemittanceSanta Monica, California, Aug 19, 2011 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- ATMCASH has joined forces with Remit4Change to collectively reinvest in community development projects and improve the way immigrants send money back home. By empowering U.S. residents to make informed decisions, the partnership brings an affordable, efficient and socially responsible solution to the money transfer industry. Remit4Change, a California based social enterprise, represents a collection of 1400 immigrant organizations. They have partnered with ATMCASH, an online money transfer service to over 150 countries, to achieve their goal of connecting immigrants with socially-minded remittance services. For each new Remit4Change customer referral, ATMCASH reinvests $20 into community development projects. An additional $1 dollar is reinvested for each subsequent transaction. ATMCASH founder and CEO Jonathan Cooper explains, "It is very important to give back to the communities we service. Along with our partnership with Remit4Change, we also donate money to KIVA; an organization that gives loans to people without access to traditional banking systems. We are confident that our work with Remit4Change and KIVA strengthens and develops communities in a sustainable way." In addition to giving back to the public, ATMCASH offers money-senders an affordable and manageable way to transfer funds. Their fees of $5 for every $1000 sent, and $1.50 for each withdrawal, are some of the lowest prices available. To further provide high quality service to the immigrant communities, ATMCASH employs a staff of customer service agents conversant in English,Spanish,Chinese, and Tagalog. Francis Calpotura, founder and executive director of Remit4Change, shared in the excitement: "We're thrilled to have ATMCASH aboard, as the newest socially-responsible remittance product on the market. We've tested their technology, their customer service agents and everything works great. ATMCASH is definitely going to effect the industry through both their donations and service offering. Together, we are making a difference in how companies and communities jointly approach sustainable development projects around the world."
