WeeVu is the new mobile app that touches everyones heart. WeeVu allows all people to support a cause through everyday shopping. No matter what people are going to shop and why not make a difference to something that moves you most while shopping. WeeVu's model grows a business image and revenue in direct correlation. Each business then grows the community through WeeVu's donations. Causes represent a large range: local and national nonprofits (charities), schools and universities, hospitals and nursing homes and places of worship. WeeVu has created one community platform for everyone to make a difference through WeeVu's donations.

WeeVu is a new mobile app (expected beta launch in Chicago, IL - April 2014) that allows customers to shop and suggest WeeVu to donate a portion of the transaction to a charity, hospital, place of worship or school that means most to the customer.

The WeeVu Mission
WeeVu was created by a brother and sister team! Matt and Steph Strauss created a mobile app that will inspire all to do their everyday shopping, while making a difference. Imagine all the nonprofits that can grow. Imagine all from communities coming together through the WeeVu mobile app platform. Imagine all the donations circulating just from a customer suggesting to WeeVu where a portion of a transaction should go, then WeeVu does the rest! This allows everyone to make a difference as everyone shops, and not why shop to make a difference with businesses that care about their community.

The WeeVu Team
Matt Strauss (Founder & President): After ending his college soccer career due to injury at West Virginia University, Matt began coaching twelve year olds. His goal wasn’t to just make them better soccer players, but to teach them life lessons through the world’s best sport (not subjective haha). He wanted to bring them to a tournament in Arizona, but realized how expensive the trip would cost for the whole group. That is when he thought of WeeVu – to partner with businesses to give back to our team to be able to go play against the best players in the country. Matt realized that this was possible, but didn’t want to put his players in an environment where they weren’t comfortable as it may be too competitive. He ultimately stepped down as coach, because he wanted to start by making an impact in his hometown of Chicago, while dreaming of impacting the whole country. And that is when he started WeeVu with his sister, Steph.

Steph Strauss (Director of Marketing): Social media and food and beverage nerd. If she isn’t reading the latest restaurant industry and social media trends, she’s probably practicing yoga. Recently certified yoga instructor. Steph believes that the ultimate goal in life is to follow your happiness while inspiring others to do the same! Steph can talk to anyone. She’s personable, motivational, hard working, detail oriented (almost to a fault, quite the perfectionist), passionate and outgoing individual. It’s safe to say that Steph knows a thing or two about restaurants. She’s been in the business for the last 8 years and has opened two successful restaurants within the last two years. Steph designed the logo for WeeVu with inspiration from her best friends Dad. Steph cannot wait to help the Chicagoland area come and grow together!
