Back a new way of giving.
Become a monthly supporter of the OpenCharities Foundation. 100% of your gift goes to the cause, and the Foundation allocates it to local changemakers who never had access to funding. You tell us which initiatives you'd love to see funded; the board decides where the money does the most good.

You give with the best intentions. But where does it actually go?
As a donor you want to know your gift truly makes a difference. Most charities can't show you what happened with your money, and most platforms take a cut along the way. OpenCharities is built differently. 100% of your gift goes to the cause, and you can follow where it goes.

100% of your gift goes to the cause
We never skim your gift for profit. The Foundation allocates 100% to the initiatives it funds. We keep the platform running through optional tips and products for companies and large organisations.
Those with budget cover those without
Companies and large organisations pay for the products we build for them. That's what lets local changemakers be funded for free. They never pay, before or after.
You choose, the board decides

Fund changemakers without access to funding
We back local initiatives all around the world that had no access to the big giving programs, no easy route to other fundraising, and no donor network of their own.
