What is PayPal Giving Fund?

Paypal Giving Fund is a way to give without any fees 100% of your donation goes to the charity of your choice.

Paypal giving fund is different from using the standard PayPal donate option for the following reasons:

Giving Assurance: PayPal works to ensure charities are in good standing and PayPal confirms the status of all participating charities, organizations and agencies.

No Fees: All fees are absorbed by PayPal. When you donate to PayPal Giving Fund, all fees are paid by PayPal.

Receive a tax receipt: After you donate you’ll get your PayPal Giving Fund tax receipt by email. Login any time to see all your PayPal Giving Fund donations.

Essential facts every PayPal Giving Fund donor should know:

100% of the donations PayPal Giving Fund receives are granted to charities.

PayPal Giving Fund grants the funds to recommended charities. Typically, the charity you recommend will receive the funds after PayPal Giving Fund receives the donation.

In very limited cases, when a recommended charity ceases to meet PayPal Giving Fund’s legal or other eligibility requirements after your donation is made, PayPal Giving Fund will grant the donated funds to a similar charity. This typically affects fewer than 1 in 1000 donations.

PayPal Giving Fund retains ultimate discretion. Pending delivery to charities, donations are held in a non-interest bearing account.

When donations are made to PayPal Giving Fund, First Christian Church, Fullerton will typically receive funds within 15-45 days.
