Donations
How to give to an organization or campaign, set up a recurring donation, and find your giving history.
On this page
Many organizations on OrganizeOS raise money to fund their work. You can give to a campaign or cause directly from a public donation page. You do not need an account to donate, though having one keeps your giving history in one place.
How to donate
- Open the organization's donation or fundraiser page (often shared by email, text, or social media).
- Choose an amount, or enter your own.
- Decide whether to give once or to set up a recurring monthly donation.
- Enter your payment details and confirm.
Payments are processed securely. You will receive a confirmation for your records.
Set up a recurring donation
A one-time gift is charged once. A recurring gift repeats automatically until you cancel it, and it is the most valuable kind of support for most organizations because it lets them plan ahead.
To set up a recurring donation, turn on Make it recurring on the donation form before you pay, then pick how often it repeats (monthly is the default). Every renewal is charged to the same payment method and sends its own receipt. To change or stop a recurring donation, contact the organization; they can pause or cancel it for you.
Giving from your member space
If you are a member of the organization, you can give without leaving your account. Open the organization's member space on the web and choose Donate from the navigation. The form is prefilled with your name and email; you can change the email if you want the receipt sent somewhere else. Choose an amount, decide whether to make it recurring, and pay. Afterward you return to the same page with a thank-you note, and the gift appears in Your giving once the payment settles, usually within a minute.
If the organization has not finished setting up online donations, the Donate page says so instead of showing a form. Ask the organization how to give in the meantime.
Finding your donation history
If you have an account, your giving history appears in your member dashboard and on the member space's Donate page, so you can see what you have given, to whom, and when. This is helpful at tax time and for keeping track of your recurring gifts.
A gift joins your history when you give while signed in, or when the email you gave with is the confirmed email on your account (or a verified secondary email you have added). Gifts you make anonymously stay anonymous and are not listed, even if you were signed in when you gave. Your lifetime total counts settled gifts only; a refunded gift stays in the list marked as refunded.
In the OrganizeOS mobile app, open an organization's member space and choose Donate. Give on the web opens the organization's donation page in a browser sheet, and your gifts to that organization are listed underneath.
Questions about a charge
If you have a question about a specific donation (a refund, a duplicate charge, or canceling a recurring gift), contact the organization you gave to directly. They manage their own donor records and can help with refunds and changes.
Why this matters
When you donate, you are making a direct, concrete contribution to work the organization has asked you to support. The confirmation you receive is proof the payment went through, so you can be confident the charge processed correctly. Your giving history in your member dashboard is yours: it travels with your account across every organization you support and stays available at tax time or whenever you need it. Recurring gifts carry extra weight because they let organizations plan and spend with confidence rather than reacting to unpredictable one-off income. Knowing how your money moves through the platform puts you in control of how much you give, to whom, and for how long.
