How it works

Know where every dollar goes before you give it.

The exact split is on screen before you confirm: your gift, both fees, and what the campaign receives. Here’s the whole path, both directions.

The walkthrough

Two ways in.

Give to a campaign, or run one. Three steps either way.

FAQ

Common questions.

Are there any fees?

What does “cover the costs” mean?
A small amount is added on top to pay the card processing, so the campaign receives exactly what you intended. The exact total is in the calculator above and at checkout. Read more
Can I donate without an account?
