Developers use our Subscription API to trigger an interactive SMS or IVR call campaign (that they've built via our website first) - by simply sending us the campaign ID and the recipient's phone number. This saves them days/weeks of coding to Twilio/Plivo/etc's APIs and they offload all changes to the interaction flows to their business team members. We've been used in 80+ countries, including by Intel and UN WFP. :)

" The weight of the evidence shows that increases in the minimum wage have lifted pay without hurting employment, a point that was driven home in a recent letter[2] to Mr. Obama and congressional leaders, signed by more than 600 economists, among them Nobel laureates and past presidents of the American Economic Association.
That economic conclusion dovetails with a recent comprehensive study[3], which found that minimum wage increases resulted in “strong earnings effects” — that is, higher pay — “and no employment effects” — that is, zero job loss. "

A local “demand constraint” underlies two of the main shortcomings associated with microcredit: displacement and exit. Displacement occurs when new jobs and incomes registered in one microcredit-supported enterprise are cancelled out by the decline in jobs and incomes in incumbent competitor microenterprises. Exit is the process whereby both new and existing microenterprises are forced to close, due to the additional supply of informal microenterprises operating in the same sector.
Nonetheless, these obvious shortcomings also help explain why, as even longstanding supporters now acknowledge, there is no empirical evidence showing microcredit cuts poverty. As a rule, it simply boosts the rate of informal microenterprise entry, which is then followed by an equally high rate of displacement and exit, creating nothing more than an unproductive and wasteful local dynamic known as “churn” or “turbulence.”

Hospitals, universities, credit unions, financial companies (e.g,. Vanguard), and insurance companies (e.g,. Blue Cross and Blue Shield) are often revenue-generating non-profits or mutual companies (where all profits are shared by the customers).
As @oneJob points out in another comment here - All that "non-profit" means is, from Wikipedia, : "A non-profit organization is an organization that uses its surplus revenues to further achieve its purpose or mission, rather than distributing its surplus income to the organization's shareholders (or equivalents) as profit or dividends."
Yes, Salesforce integration is on the roadmap - we get many requests for this.
