Send grants to any US charity — digitally, securely, and instantly. No paper checks. No chasing signatures. No delays. We handle the compliance - all you need to do is give.
Most foundations manage grants the way they have for decades. The tools have changed. The frustrations haven’t.
Paper checks are slow, easily misdirected, and give you no visibility into when they’re received. They also can’t capture the charity’s consent to your grant conditions — leaving you without documentation you’re legally required to keep.
Each wire requires you to collect, vet, and securely store the charity’s banking credentials. Grant agreements must then be signed manually and returned by email — a paper chase that can delay payment for days or weeks.
With traditional methods, you don’t know when the charity received the funds, whether they’ve acknowledged your grant letter, or whether your conditions were accepted. Critical documentation often lives in email threads and filing cabinets.
From the moment you decide to make a grant to the moment funds hit the charity’s account, everything happens digitally and with a full audit trail.
You receive a dedicated FDIC-insured escrow account, hosted at Citibank. Wire funds in when you’re ready to make a grant, or maintain a balance to make your grantmaking even more efficient. Real-time balance visibility at all times.
Browse or search over 350,000 US charities — all pre-vetted and in good standing. Confirm the charity’s legal identity, EIN, and standing in seconds. Enter the amount and the date you want the payment made.
Add fundholder details, dedications, designations, and your grant letter. Define any conditions or restrictions on the use of funds. If the charity declines your terms, the funds stay in your escrow account — your compliance is protected.
The charity logs in to their verified account and accepts your terms online. Funds are deposited into their bank account immediately. You receive an instant confirmation notification with a full record of the grant.
A quick walkthrough of the full grantmaking flow — from funding your escrow account to the moment funds land at the charity.
