Marlon Ramos is an IT Consultant and the founder of DashPledge.
The idea was born close to home — his wife Aileen, a PTA treasurer, worked closely with the PTA president organizing move-a-thons and read-a-thons for their school, only to watch a significant chunk of every dollar disappear to platform fees. Month after month, she’d come home frustrated, knowing that 15–20% of what their community worked so hard to raise never made it to the kids.
Marlon saw a real problem that needed a real fix. So he built DashPledge — a platform where schools and communities keep 100% of what they raise, with no hidden fees and no surprises.
