Executive Summary

JustGive’s leadership position in the online giving area is spotlighted below. Further details are available in our individual media kits.

An Overview of the JustGive program
JustGive is the destination for online charitable giving. We have channeled the power of the Internet to connect people with the causes and charities they most care about. We remove barriers to giving and offer information that enhances donors' understanding of philanthropy. We provide users with resources, services, and tools they need to give their money and their time to charity. Our wide-ranging, innovative giving options include Charity Gift Cards, our Charity Wedding Registry, unique Gift Collections, and special fundraising registries. We encourage giving for life and offer ways to make charitable donations part of every life, every day.

Charity Search
Our comprehensive database enables donors to give to nearly 1.5 million nonprofit groups of every types and size in the United States. Donors can find financial and program information on each charity, which enables them to donate more wisely to their preferred causes. We also offer our cutting-edge technology to corporations wanting to provide custom charitable giving options, such as rebates for product purchases, credit card points purchases, and gift certificate redemption, to their employees and customers.

Helping Nonprofits
In hard times, charitable programs may suffer. By exposing donors to creative ways of giving to charity, JustGive generates millions of dollars to philanthropy. And by providing supporters and potential donors with information and simple ways to give, we break down barriers to charitable giving and help donors become knowledgeable and involved givers. We're proud of the fact that we have one of the highest pass-through rates of any charitable organization. Fully 97 cents of every dollar goes to the organizations donors choose to support. Our corporate programs bring new donors and new funding to charities that would not have received it otherwise—and all at no cost.

Everyday Giving
JustGive encourages donors to create giving plans that make donation a part of everyday life. While one-time giving is valuable, repeat giving creates greater stability for charitable organizations and allows donors a continual feeling of satisfaction.

Empowering Individuals
Individual donations make up more than 75 percent of charitable giving. The Internet is a powerful way to connect donors of every income level to the charities that need their support. JustGive targets current donors who can give more, as well as new donors who are active Internet users.

Supporting JustGive
JustGive is supported by hundreds of volunteers and numerous pro bono corporate service teams. In addition to our generous individual donors, several well-known corporations have trusted the expertise of the JustGive team and become valuable supporters of our programs.
