Remove Chapter Organizations

You can remove a chapter organization by changing its status to Inactive in My Nonprofits. When inactive, the chapter is no longer available for giving in the YourCause platform. You can reactivate it later if needed.

Before You Start

You must be registered as an administrator or manager for your organization to remove chapters.

Tip: If you're not registered, see Become a Nonprofit Administrator for instructions.
