Nonprofits get to the heart of many important matters, serving the needs of and advocating for millions of people.
That’s why nonprofits are at the heart of Give Lively.
Give Lively serves the nonprofit community with the values of humanity, joy, conscientiousness and collaboration. We embrace these values every day through intention and action, and they describe the tone and personality of the Give Lively brand.
Give Lively is a tech company reimagining the future of nonprofit fundraising. We believe that nonprofits, no matter their size, should not sacrifice their means to satisfy their missions, so we build powerful and practical fundraising solutions that are free for nonprofits and intuitive for donors.
We're especially proud to support values that inspire nonprofits to tackle tough challenges and complex issues like gender and racial equality, reproductive health and LGBTQ+ rights, social and environmental justice, education, domestic violence, immigrant services and more.
We have embraced similar values as guides for the use of our technology. We reserve our membership for organizations that use our platform and products to:
We are human, joyful, conscientious and collaborative.
We aim to be a friendly, supportive, inclusive, helpful force for good. The tone and personality of all our editorial content reflects this. It is amplified by our commitment to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.
We are a catalyst.
We guide, steward and advocate for nonprofits. By not charging nonprofits for our digital fundraising tools, we activate the Give Lively Effect, our superpower: a proven way of democratizing and leveling the fundraising playing field, guiding nonprofits into the digital age, helping them hit their fundraising goals and freeing them to devote more resources to their critical work.
We are technologists.
We are tech-forward and building tools for good, with actual humans in mind.

Our solutions are practical, intuitive, flexible and – best of all – free.

Our tools can be transformative for nonprofits. We challenge the status quo with a business model that is a game-changer. We are small but mighty, punching above our weight in an industry of giants.
We are compelling.
We are motivated and motivating in all we do – pragmatic and logical, decisive and action-oriented, imaginative yet directional.
