Network for Good is an American-certified B Corporation software company that offers fundraising software and coaching for charities and non-profit organizations. The company was founded in 2001 by America Online (AOL), Cisco Systems, and Yahoo! and has processed over $2.2 billion in donations since its inception. Network for Good charges between 3% and 5% transaction processing fee for donations, in addition to any subscription fees that the charity might incur. The transaction processing costs may be covered by the donor or by the nonprofit organization.[1]

History

Network for Good was set up in 2001 as a collaboration among America Online, Cisco Systems and Yahoo, replacing AOL's earlier charitable platform, Helping.org.[2] By 2002 it was reporting receipts of about $1 million per month,[1] and by 2005 it reported about $30 million in annual collections.[3] In 2005 Network for Good absorbed Groundspring, another online charitable platform that had been founded by the Tides Foundation in 1999.[4][5]

In 2007 actor Kevin Bacon collaborated with Network for Good to set up his charitable project, SixDegrees.org, as a "celebrity-based" variant on Network for Good's existing model.[6][7][8]

In 2008 Network for Good acquired the ePhilanthropy Foundation,[9] an organization established in 2001 with the goal of providing training and promoting ethical practices in online fundraising[10] and that had later faced uncertainty after the departure of its founder.[11]

As of February 2014, Network for Good reported that it had processed more than $1 billion in gifts since its inception.[12]

Management

As well as its headquarters, it also has an office in San Francisco, California, through its 2005 merger with Groundspring.org. Board members are composed of people who have previously worked with various other companies such as AOL, Yahoo! and eBay.[13]

Services

Non-profit services

Non-profits can access tools for online fundraising, email marketing, events management and expert advice.[14] Nonprofits can also receive free tips and training on topics including how to develop and improve their online marketing, donor communications and fundraising. Network for Good offers webinars, e-books, courses, newsletters, and how-to articles.[15]

Competitors of Network for Good that also provide nonprofit online donation platforms include CrowdRise, Classy, Razoo, Aplos Software, and Blackbaud.

Partnership services

Network for Good provides online giving capabilities[16] for cause marketing, employee giving, and charitable rewards for corporate partners. The company also works with technology partners and developers to power giving sites through its API.

Studies

Network for Good publishes a Digital Giving Index,[17] based on the 2010 Online Giving Study. This data is based on Network for Good's own yearly donation processing activities and shows the annual changes in donation volume, average donation, and other trends in online giving.

Network for Good publishes multiple e-books and white-papers each year on topics ranging from disaster giving to social media. The organization also sponsored "How Crisis Compels Donors to Give Online", a study on online donations during disasters such as Hurricane Katrina,[18] and "The Wired Fundraiser", a study reflecting how current technology is changing the world of fundraising.[19]

Controversy

Exodus Global Alliance is not a Network for Good Customer but uses its DonateNow Lite product, which is free and available to all 501(c)3 charities listed on Candid,[20] to raise money for sexual orientation conversion therapy.[21]

"At that time they were raising like $30 million a year; now, they're up to $50 million a year. They have over a million charities, and they have a very well-designed, easy-to-use site. So, in a way, I thought, 'Oh well, that's it. They're not going to want to have me involved in it.' On the contrary, they were like, 'Great, let's do it together.' So I was really lucky; it was kind of serendipitous.")
