Make My Donation’s donor-advised fund (“DAF”) is an account composed of contributions made by individual donors. Once the donor contributes, the DAF has legal control over it. However, the donor exercises their advisory privileges by suggesting a qualified charitable organization as a recipient concerning periodic grant disbursements made by the DAF.

Unfortunately, no. The IRS rules regarding donor-advised funds do not allow us to cancel or refund a donation once it is completed unless extenuating circumstances exist. If you believe extenuating circumstances exist, contact support@makemydonation.org. We will consider all requests on a case-by-case basis.

There is no cost to charitable organizations in receiving grant disbursements.

There are three fees associated with your online donation. First are the debit/credit card fees paid to the processing company.

These fees vary based on the service provided. Last are the platform fees paid to our website developer to develop, maintain, update, and innovate our website. All fees are paid to third-party companies; Make My Donation does not take a fee for any of its services. Credit card processing fees, as well as partner platform fees, apply. Our average grant to charity(ies) is approximately 90% of the original donation.

When we make grant disbursements, we provide selected donor and donation information to each recipient charitable organization.
