Overview
Mission
Encourage charitable giving, will solicit and receive charitable contributions, and will make charitable contributions to other 501(c)(3) public charities.
What it reported doing in 2025
Donor education. An online platform connecting people and nonprofits to do good, differently. Discover nonprofits, explore causes, and learn how your gift makes a difference in the lives of others. Givers can fund and track all charitable giving in one streamlined digital wallet, a "democratized" donor-advised fund (daf), and nonprofits can reach new donors and show just how much good they can do.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 98% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 99% of its reported program spending out as grants.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
