Enrolled Charities

PayPal Giving Fund distributes donations to enrolled charities monthly (the end of each month) by depositing a single payment into each charity's PayPal account. 

***New charities must complete the enrollment process by the 15th to receive your first payment within the same month.***

We aggregate the donations to help reduce charities' administrative costs. 

Unenrolled Charities

If a donation has been made to benefit your charity and it is not currently enrolled with PayPal Giving Fund, we will invite your charity to enroll with us. PayPal Giving Fund will make several attempts to contact you via email and/or physical mail before we will attempt to deliver the funds via cheque, after we have determined that your charity meets our requirements for receiving grants from PayPal Giving Fund, pursuant to our Charity Certification Policy and Donation Delivery Policy.

We distribute cheque to unenrolled charities on a bi-monthly basis after we have determined that an organization meets our requirements pursuant to our Charity Certification Policy and Donation Delivery Policy.

If you're not sure if your charity is enrolled with PayPal Giving Fund, you can view your enrollment status by searching for your charity in our Fundraiser Hub. If your charity's page states, "Source: Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)", then your charity it enrolled.

• View donor details to help build your database (where the donor has agreed to share their details with you).
