Montreal, Canada, July 25, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Northern Providence Investments announced today that it has selected a group of leading crowdfunding platforms, pursuant to its "Help Change the World for the Better" campaign, to generate increased SRI ("Socially Responsible Investing") awareness and raise additional funds to launch its family of 14 SRI funds.

"Northern Providence Investments is committed to partnering with and investing in organizations that not only demonstrate outstanding social responsibility and environmental management initiatives, but also contribute to the sustainability of the world. As such, we have identified a select group of leading crowdfunding platforms to help us generate increased SRI awareness, connect with supporters and potential customers, and launch the company’s family of 14 SRI mutual funds," said Peterson Frederick, Chairman and interim Chief Executive Officer of Northern Providence Investments. "Crowdfunding platforms such as www.indiegogo.com, www.rockethub.com, www.pledgie.com, www.crowdfunder.co.uk, www.sponsume.com, www.fundrazr.com, and www.helpersunite.com have devoted global sustainability advocates; and, after careful consideration, we have selected these platforms to launch our 'Help Change the World for the Better' campaign."

"We believe that working with these leading crowdfunding platforms will give us the traction and reach needed to meet our campaign objectives," added Mr. Frederick.
