Donuj

Donuj is a Polish online donation platform that enables individuals and organizations to support charitable projects and causes through monetary contributions. The service was launched in 2015 by a group of developers and nonprofit advocates who identified a need for a user-friendly interface that could connect donors with vetted NGOs across a wide range of sectors, including health, education, and environmental conservation.

The platform operates on a secure, encrypted system that allows donors to choose from more than 150 registered nonprofit partners. Each partner’s profile includes details about its mission, annual reports, and a breakdown of how funds are allocated. Donors can set one‑time or recurring contributions, specify project preferences, and receive updates via email or the platform’s mobile application.

One of Donuj’s distinguishing features is its emphasis on transparency. Every donation is publicly recorded, and the platform publishes annual reports that track click‑through rates, average donation amounts, and total funds raised. Additionally, donors receive a receipt that includes a donation number for tax deduction purposes, which is particularly important in Poland where charitable donations can qualify for tax relief.

The platform also offers tools for nonprofits, such as campaign analytics dashboards and integration options with existing fundraising pages. It promotes online education by hosting webinars and guides that teach smaller organizations how to optimize their fundraising strategies and maintain donor engagement.

Since its inception, Donuj has facilitated more than €50 million in contributions to Polish charities. According to public data, it has helped to increase funding for various sector-specific initiatives, such as rural education projects and environmental restoration programs. The platform’s growth reflects a broader trend among Polish citizens to use digital means for philanthropic engagement, and it continues to adapt by adding features like peer‑to‑peer fundraising and social media sharing options.
