Refunds

Does it cost to use faithraiser? 

We want you to keep as much of your donations as possible! That is why we have kept our site FREE to use. The only thing deducted from your raised donations is a processing fee. That fee is 2.9% plus .30 cent per transaction. We do accept site support donations. These donations help us run this awesome platform. 

Is my donation tax deductible?  

When donating to individuals, you are typically giving a gift that is not tax-deductible. There are circumstances where this might not be the case. We suggest you talk to your tax professional to gain clarity on your donation. You will receive a donation receipt regardless.  

When donating to a charity using faithraiser, you will receive a donation receipt from us. It will be the responsibility of the charity to send you a contribution statement at the end of the year for tax purposes. You will be able to contact them directly and utilize your donation receipt if you don’t automatically receive a contribution statement from them.

Crowdfunding allows you to raise support for a need or cause by receiving help from many people through several smaller donations. In our case this also translates into volunteer help from the community, collecting supplies from many different individuals, and gathering people to events to rally them around your cause. 

Our mission is to provide a platform and community that brings a variety of resources and awareness to those in need through the generosity and actions of others. We are here to see needs met!

We love that you are interested in being a part of our faithraiser team. Please send an email to contact@faithraiser.com with your resume and reason you desire to work with us.
