OUR MODEL

Free means free

We do not charge nonprofits for use of our fundraising platform, products and features — no setup fees, no platform fees, no membership or subscription fees, no annual or monthly fees, no hidden Give Lively fees. We work for nonprofits, not for profit.

In addition to major operational support from our philanthropic founder-funders, we accept voluntary contributions from donors wishing to help nonprofits direct dollars to critical work instead of for-profit digital fundraising software.
