The folks who started My Giving Hub got fed up with making donations to worthy charities and then being flooded with emails and snail mail. First the charity sends you emails thanking you for your donation. Then, around the holidays, they send you more emails and postal mail, asking for more money. Finally, many charities sell your contact information to other charities, so you start getting messages from charities you've never even heard of. Sound familiar?

When we donate to a charity, we wanted as much of that donation to go to the charity's work as possible, and we definitely didn't want our donations wasted on sending emails and postal mail. So the idea of My Giving Hub was born.

You tell us how much you want to donate and what charity you want to donate to, and we send that money to the charity. The charity never knows who you are, so they can't bug you with email or postal mail. My Giving Hub is an IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit, so you still get a tax deductible receipt for your donation. The only difference is that the charity can't bother you for more money because they don't know that you donated.

When you donate through My Giving Hub, we request the bare minimum amount of information from you that is necessary. We process all of our payments through PayPal so we never have to store your name, address, or credit card information. We don't need that information, and we don't want to have it. PayPal handles the payments, we just need your email address so we can send you your tax receipt. By storing the bare minimum information about you, you can be certain that we won't sell your information to anyone; we don't have anything to sell!
