What is the Blackbaud Giving Fund?

The Blackbaud Giving Fund is a US nonprofit organization that powers philanthropy by connecting the generosity of donors to charities around the world.

By partnering with technology platforms, The Blackbaud Giving Fund will securely and efficiently deliver donations to nonprofit organizations that will maximize the impact of the donor’s charitable giving.

A Better Way to Enable Giving

Distribution is our priority

The Blackbaud Giving Fund will not hold funds longer than necessary to disburse funds to eligible designated charities.

Simple funding options

A client can choose to fund their account for each payment distribution cycle or pre-fund to ensure a quick delivery.

All donations are distributed, big and small

All funds, regardless of the total donation amount, will be sent to the designated charities suggested by donors.

Note: Fund disbursement to the designated charity depends on the charity meeting the Blackbaud Giving Fund's vetting standards.

Confidence in our reliable vetting

Nonprofits are verified through our Dependable Diligence vetting process, which meets US 501(c)(3) Equivalency Determination standards.

The Blackbaud Giving Fund uses partners in strategic countries to maximize the number of vetted charities through in-country governmental standards. This process gives clients the confidence that gifts disbursed through The Blackbaud Giving Fund are delivered to over two million charitable organizations across 180 countries that have passed our Dependable Diligence vetting standards.

Our Partnership

Through our partnership, YourCause’s Global Good Network™, comprised of the top socially responsible companies around the world and their employees, trusts the Blackbaud Giving Fund and YourCause to disburse their charitable donations.

In those instances, the YourCause team is happy to disburse paper checks in the US without penalty to the nonprofit, donor, or the donation.
