100's of Toronto Charities to Choose From

Why not give your gift directly to the charity of your choice - instead of paying CanadaHelps.org 3% off the top? I don't think a middleman is necessary in this transaction.

Erin, the 3% fee is necessary to cover credit card processing fees. Any charity (or merchant) has to pay these fees to process credit card transactions - whether through our website, our their own. Not only do we have a low rate, we do other things (such as tax receipting) to benefit charities.

Erin - I sincerely appreciate your opinion. In fact, I agree that some donors may want to form direct relationships with the charities they support. Please note, though, that donating through CanadaHelps.org does not prevent this from happening! Thousands of charities use our service to reduce their fundraising costs and free up time so that they can spend more of it connecting with their donors. Tens of thousands of donors choose CanadaHelps.org to easily make donations to more than one charity at the same time, and because they can choose what kind of relationship they want to have with each charity they support. Some donors simply want to remain anonymous, and we're happy to provide them with this opportunity.

Hello,
In India and the States, there's a new method of donating to charities of their choice via sms (text messaging). They can donate a set amount of $10 each time directly. It's a great way for younger, phone savvy crowd to adapt to donating vs going on the internet or mailing it. There's a company in Toronto that especializes in setting up charitable organization with this method. I think it's it's Bworks Inc or something... 416-722-6344
