JustGive is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to increase charitable giving by connecting people with the charities and causes they care most about. The site offers many ways to give—direct donations, charity gift cards, charity gift registries, wedding registries, gift collections, and memorial donations—for every purpose and occasion. A partnership with GuideStar gives donors access to more than 1.8 million 501(c)(3) organizations.
JustGive was one of the first organizations to launch a charitable giving platform on the web, and is the leader in customizing this service for corporations. JustGive has built customized giving systems for corporate partners, such as American Express, Cisco, Discover, Marriott, Microsoft and Wells Fargo.
Using the power of the Internet, JustGive has built a successful Web site, through which it has sent over 950,000 donations valued at over $170 million for tens of thousands of charities working in the community and throughout the world. JustGive focuses on providing donors with innovative ways of donating to their favorite cause, generating new channels of funding for all charities.
In November 2009, JustGive joined forces with I Do Foundation to better serve the charitable wedding sector. JustGive and I Do Foundation are integrating their programs, retaining the I Do Foundation brand for wedding occasion giving while adding the powerful JustGive systems and technology.
