Nonprofits like yours, thriving with Give Lively
We have some answers that will help you
Our fundraising platform stands apart from others for a trio of reasons:
- Our cost -- we are free for nonprofits
- Our direct collaboration with nonprofits
- Our emphasis on progressive values
Our platform is free for nonprofits
We believe that nonprofits, no matter their size, should not sacrifice their means to satisfy their missions. So we built and support a powerful and practical fundraising platform that’s free for nonprofits and intuitive for donors — no setup fees, no platform fees, no membership or subscription fees, no annual or monthly fees, no hidden Give Lively fees.
We also never sell, rent or lease any data — just one aspect of our comprehensive approach to data privacy and security. Nor do we charge donors to give through our platform.

We communicate and collaborate directly with nonprofits
Give Lively’s dedicated team of advocates and technologists is proud to collaborate directly with nonprofits of all sizes as we improve our platform to better serve their needs and desires. To facilitate this, our nonprofit members have access to a shared transparent feedback tool through which they make requests and upvote others’ suggestions, as well as gauge our progress on projects we undertake.
Our commitment to nonprofits goes beyond fundraising
We support values that inspire nonprofits to tackle tough challenges and complex issues such as gender and racial equality, reproductive health and LGBTQ+ rights, social and environmental justice, education, domestic violence, immigrant services and more.
In keeping with that, we personally review every membership application to ensure each nonprofit member aligns with our values. We also work to terminate all uses of our technology that promote activities not in alignment with our values
Notably, we believe that #BlackLivesMatter and stand in solidarity with Asian Americans.

We understand and sympathize with your concern about what “free” means today. We've experienced the same “free” service offers with hidden gotchas. And we know that some services claim to be "free" as a way to justify selling your data.
We pledge to be different.

How is free possible?
Our founders are committed philanthropists. In keeping with their goodwill vision of digital fundraising, they cover our operating costs so that we don’t have to charge nonprofits or donors.
They see Give Lively as a technological remedy to the complexity of fundraising, as well as a way to make strategic, efficient and impartial decisions about how to support the nonprofit community. In Give Lively, they identified a mechanism for sustainably leveraging their resources to help meet the development needs of a very broad group of potential beneficiaries.
That mechanism is our superpower. We call it the Give Lively Effect: a proven way of democratizing and leveling the digital fundraising playing field, guiding nonprofits into the digital age, helping them hit their fundraising goals and freeing them to devote more resources to their critical work.

At the moment, the Give Lively platform integrates directly with a quartet of third-party services: Salesforce, Zapier, PayPal and Double the Donation.
Until other integrations are added, you can download donor data from the Nonprofit Admin Portal as a CSV file and import it into any CRM of choice.
