The minimum donation amount is set at {{currency_symbol}}20. If you're not in a position to donate, you can can still vote for free once a week and share with your friends and ask them to vote as well.
We charge a platform fee of 6.5% on donations received to allow us to maintain and improve the website for the benefit of all our amazing charities.
All donations are processed securely via stripe and sent to your charity of choice directly.
If you make a one-off donation we add 1 Vote for every {{currency_symbol}} you give. For example if you donate {{currency_symbol}}50 we add 50 Votes.
If you sign up for monthly giving we add 5 x Votes for every {{currency_symbol}} you commit to in the first month and then 1 vote per {{currency_symbol}} each month thereafter until cancelled.
For example if you commit to {{currency_symbol}}50 a month we add 50 x 5 votes = 250 votes immediately and then 50 votes a month thereafter.
You can make a donation here, when you vote, or via our leaderboard at anytime.
We understand peoples financial circumstances change, and you are free to cancel your regular giving at any time by logging into your account. Please note however that we add extra votes for regular giving (we love regular giving!). If you cancel your regular giving within 3 months the votes added are deducted from your charities total.
You can vote once a week for the Charities you love and choose up to 3 each time. Votes cast more often than once a week are disregarded.
You can donate as often as you want, and we add 1 Vote for every {{currency_symbol}} you give as a one-off donation and more if you commit to monthly giving.
Please be aware that if you vote using fake email addresses or multiple email addresses your vote will not count. Even if you see the vote count go up, all fake votes are scrubbed before the grants are awarded.
When you vote or donate to a Charity they may wish to contact you to thank-you for your support and keep you up-to-date with the work they're doing. When it occurs, contact will usually be via email, and in some instances telephone. When a Charity wishes to contact a supporter we have strict guidelines in place that include:
Only Charities that you have voted for, donated to, or indicated as one of your favourites can make contact. We do not share your details with any Charity you have not indicated as one of your favourites.
If making contact by email there must be a clear and easy way for your to unsubscribe from future emails
They must be courteous, professional and polite. We hope you'll be interested in hearing from them, but if you're not, no further contact is made
They must abide by the Fundraising Institute of Australia's guidelines - our equivalent governing body in their country - regarding contacting you
If you believe any Charity is not abiding by these guidelines we want to hear from you and you can send an email with the details to [email protected]
When you vote in a Giving Circle the grants sponsor may wish to email you to thank you for voting, let you know which charities received the grants and/or introduce themselves and their product(s) to you. By voting you are giving express consent to be contacted via email only by the grants sponsor on the basis that:
contact can only be via email unless you are informed otherwise
you will always have the option to unsubscribe from any further communications from the sponsor
If you have any concerns about being contacted by a grants sponsor via email you can opt-out by emailing your details to [email protected]
When you donate to a charity we add an extra vote for every {{currency_symbol}} you give – even more for regular giving – and the money is remitted to your nominated charity less our platform and credit card fees.
When you pay to feature a charity we use the money to feature your nominated charity on our website, via email and social media to get them more votes, find them new supporters and ultimately new donors. This money is not remitted to the charity and we guarantee to get them at least 1 additional vote or more for every {{currency_symbol}} you chip in to feature them. The money we earn from featuring charities is reinvested back into the business and into growing our grants pool
