A Vision Born from Adversity
The idea behind The Everywhere Card™ began more than two decades ago during one of the most challenging periods of Barry Shore's life. After a rare neurological condition left him paralyzed from the neck down, Barry spent years on a long road to recovery. During that time, he reflected deeply on purpose, impact, and what he could contribute to the world. In the midst of that journey, a bold idea took root. Barry set a Big Hairy Audacious Goal: to give one billion dollars to charity — without costing any giver a penny.
A Challenge That Sparked Innovation
Barry shared this vision with his wife, Naomi. Her response was simple and direct: “You're smart. Figure it out.” And so began a journey that would take more than 20 years. Along the way there were many challenges — technology limitations, funding hurdles, and the need for the right partnerships and infrastructure to make such an ambitious idea possible. But the vision never disappeared.
When the Time Finally Became Right
As technology evolved and new financial tools became possible, the pieces finally began to come together. After many iterations, trials, and lessons learned, the concept ultimately became The Everywhere Card™. It is a simple idea with powerful impact: a $100 prepaid Visa® card that can be used anywhere Visa is accepted — online or in stores. Every time one is purchased, $3 goes directly to a participating cause or charity. There is no extra cost and no change in spending habits — just everyday purchases turned into meaningful impact.
Turning Everyday Spending Into Everyday Giving
The Everywhere Card was built on one belief: giving should be easy. By harnessing the power of everyday spending, supporters can help organizations raise funds simply by choosing a card that gives back. What began as a vision during a difficult chapter of life has now become a platform designed to help millions of people support the causes they care about effortlessly.
The Mission
Our mission is simple: transform everyday spending into a powerful force for good, and continue working toward the vision that started it all — giving one billion dollars to charity without costing any giver a penny.
What we do
We sell $100 Visa® prepaid digital gift cards through cause-branded pages at theeverywherecard.com/your-cause. Supporters pay $100 by direct debit from their bank account and get the full $100 on a digital card, usable anywhere Visa is accepted. The cause receives $3 per card — paid by the platform, not by the supporter.
Why it works
Traditional fundraising asks supporters to give extra. The Everywhere Card asks them to redirect what they were already going to spend. No big events, no door-to-door, no subscriptions, no apps to install. Just simple everyday shopping that quietly funds the causes that matter to them.
How the math works
The average supporter purchases $600 a month in cards. Their cause receives 3% of that — $18 per supporter, per month. With 100 active supporters, that's $21,600 a year of passive recurring revenue, with no fundraising labor required.
Who's behind it
The Everywhere Card is independently operated. Cards are issued by DASH Solutions, the largest US issuer of prepaid Visa products. Direct debit (ACH) payments are processed by SOLA.
