About us

Our Vision

The cause is all that matters. The number of non-profit organizations nowadays can be overwhelming and it is not always clear what they stand for. We focus on researching charitable causes and projects in order to make your choice easy. The cause is always at the very heart of it all.

Transparency

Transparency

Non-profit organizations have administrative costs such as rent and salaries too. And although this is not a bad thing we do believe that this should not interfere with your will to support a good cause. This is why we at StartGiving forward 100% of your donation and inform you transparently about all aspects of our work. You additionally have full control over whether or not you'd like to make a contribution to us. We will furthermore always keep you up to date about the impact your donations have.

Together we are working hard to make StartGiving better every day. We would love to hear your opinion and ideas about the platform. Based on feedback and of course our own vision we want to develop new and exciting functionalities. Our users never sleep, so we don’t either.

Sustainability

We at StartGiving believe that everyone can make a difference, no matter how little or how much you have. A single donation should have a lasting effect.

With us, you have the choice to set up a virtual foundation in your own name and to promote the causes that are closest to your heart sustainably.

Simplicity

Giving should be easy and transparent.

StartGiving is financed by a few private sponsors without any profit interest and from transaction-based charges.

We find it so important that everybody can donate – even if they do not want to contribute to us - that we have provided you with the choice to lower your contribution, even if that means we get nothing ourselves. We trust you to support our work, service and the further development of StartGiving through a fair contribution.
