Donors can also be secure in the knowledge that 100 percent of their gifts will be received by the charities of their choice. CharityWave will underwrite all transaction costs associated with donations. There are no fees for fundraising or for administration to silently reduce their contribution. In addition, donors receive an electronic receipt, good for income tax purposes, for each donation made, and a thank you letter from the non-profit. The donor may also request confidentiality so that his or her donation goes to the charity anonymously.
Charities benefit because they can be reached by impulse and small donors at their computers.
Individuals are often put off by the difficulty of making contributions in traditional ways. Now a donor can contribute while at a charity's own home page, through a sponsoring organization's web site, or from any other site on the web that displays the CharityWave logo. CharityWave is designed to be a supplement to a non-profit's fundraising efforts, as well as serve to raise a charity's profile on the web.
