JustGiving

JustGiving is a global online platform that enables individuals and organizations to raise money for charitable causes. Founded in 2000 in the United Kingdom, it has since expanded its services and reach to numerous countries worldwide. The core function of JustGiving is to facilitate online donations and fundraising activities, allowing individuals to set up personal fundraising pages for events such as marathons, birthdays, or other challenges.

The platform serves both donors and charities. Donors can search for causes they wish to support and make one-time or recurring donations directly through the website or mobile app. Charities registered with JustGiving can create profiles to receive donations, manage their fundraising campaigns, and communicate with their supporters. The service typically processes donations and passes them on to the chosen charities, often taking a small transaction fee to cover operational costs.

Beyond simple donations, JustGiving offers tools for crowdfunding, peer-to-peer fundraising, and event registration. It aims to make the process of giving and fundraising as accessible and efficient as possible, leveraging online technology to connect people with the causes they care about. Over the years, JustGiving has become a prominent name in the online charity sector, supporting a wide array of non-profit organizations and facilitating millions of pounds in donations annually.
