Q: Why GiveClicks?
A: GiveClicks is dedicated to providing much needed financial support to charitable organizations. We offer people the opportunity to support their favorite charities easily through their regular online buying. With just the click of a button, donations can be directed to the charity of their choice with absolutely no cost to you!
Q: How big is online shopping?
A: In the past few years, online shopping has grown exponentially. According to the Chronicle of Philanthropy, online donations totaled $1.2 billion in 2006. That figure represents a dramatic increase from the $7 million given online in 1999. Globally Forester Research reports that U.S. and European online retail activity rose “a staggering 58%” in 2007 with similar increases likely for 2008. With so many people shopping online, it only makes sense that online donations would grow as well.
Q: Where do donations come from?
A: Revenue is generated from online purchases made by your organization’s supporters from a participating vendor. Currently over 2,000 online vendors, a few of which are listed as examples on the right-hand side of your screen, are willing to provide compensation for these online buying activities. When purchases are made, a portion of that money is donated by the vendor and tracked by GiveClicks, who will send your organization a check every month.
Q: Where can people shop?
A: People can shop anywhere. When your supporters buy from one of our more than 2,000 retailers, a portion of their purchase is automatically donated to your charity.
Q: How long does the program last?
A: There is no time limit. That is the beauty of GiveClicks! Once your supporters click on the link from your website, every time they make a purchase from that computer their donations will be tracked and automatically sent to you. Recurring revenue is continually generated at no additional cost to either the consumer or your organization.
Q: How do I sign up?
A: Signing up is easy. In fact, you can do it right here on our website! Once your organization is registered, individuals will be able to choose to support your charity with just the click of a button.
