1st Global Financial Provides San Diego Sports Fishing Merchants with Credit Services and Unique Way to Support Favorite Charity
Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) June 28, 2007 -- 1st Global Financial Corporation (OTC Symbol: FGBF) (German WKN#A0LGTL Symbol: ZUM) is providing San Diego sports fishing merchants with the credit processing services they need and in doing so, also providing an easy way for these merchants to support their favorite charity. Through 1st Global?s Charitable Give-Back Program, a portion of all their credit card transaction fees collected by the various merchants will be donated to Friends of Rollo ? U.A., a non-profit organization focused on providing disabled and at-risk children with the opportunity to experience the joy of outdoor fishing.
1st Global?s Give-Back Program was an attractive offering to Pacific Merchant Services, a company representing a number of San Diego-based sports fishing merchants including; Fisherman?s Landing, Fisherman?s Landing Tackle Shop, Point Loma Sportsfishing Association, Seaforth Sportfishing, Dana Landing Market and Fuel. As a customer of 1st Global?s subsidiary, 1st Federal Financial, Pacific Merchant Services was able to offer its group of clientele the opportunity to designate a specific charity to receive automatic ongoing contributions on their behalf.
?The sports fishing industry has given us so much, and we wanted to give something back,? said Captain Mark Gillette and Captain Chris Switzer of Pacific Merchant Services. We?ve always respected the great work being done by Friends of Rollo and thought 1st Global?s Charitable Give-Back Program was the perfect vehicle for us to support the communities and the activities we love. Our merchants love the program and their daily customers like knowing that their credit card purchases help support this worthy cause.?
Pacific Merchant Services clientele are expected to collectively process between $10 million and $12 million annually through 1st Federal Financial. A portion of the profits from this revenue will go directly to Friends of Rollo ? U.A. on behalf of the merchants, earning the group corporate level sponsor status.
?This is exactly how we want our give-back program to work,? said T.A. "Gil" Gillis, president of 1st Global. ?Our merchants are seeing the value of working with FGBF and simultaneously giving back to the communities they serve. Friends of Rollo is an excellent organization to support and we applaud the efforts of Pacific Merchants Services and its clientele.?
1st Global?s unique business model includes a first-of-its-kind three-pronged cause marketing program designed to help customers give-back to their local communities and support charitable organizations of their choosing. Aside from 1st Global?s Give-Back Program, the company also works closely with minority owned businesses providing financial services to a growing community that is often ignored by banks and other traditional financial institutions. The company also offers its independent sales offices (ISO) the opportunity to be granted stock options, based on the ISO?s profitability.
