Making a difference for non-profits
Let’s give big!
In collaboration with like-minded people, the Community Giving Platform was developed to help facilitate a Big Give 24-hour online giving campaign.
While primarily dealing with smaller communities, our mission is to provide an affordable, online giving platform with ease of use and functionality for any sized community.
We want to partner with you during your Big Give and keep the contributions where they belong—with the non-profits!

Community Giving Interface
Home Page
Numerous features are packed into the home page: a slider, countdown timer, and a listing of non-profits either alphabetically or grouped by category. During the event, a total amount is given banner, social integrations (Facebook and Twitter), a listing of in-person giving locations, two top 10 leader boards, and a scrolling area for listing your sponsors can be displayed.
Non-profit Profile Page
Leading up to your giving event non-profits will sign up online. Once they are activated and provided with a user id and password they can then log in and update their profile information. They have the ability to provide a full set of information about themselves, a description of the services they offer, describe what they are currently raising money for, other ways to contact them via their social media platforms, as well as upload images to complete their profile. They can also download their donor information after the event has ended.
Adminstration Interface
The admin interface is a robust area that allows Big Give administrators to control numerous aspects of how the site operates. A number of features can be turned on and off based on date/time settings. Administrators have an interface to input in-person donations, view and download all donor/donation information, update site content, access nonprofit profiles, manage in-person giving station information, as well as view additional statistics about the event.
Non-profit Admin Interface
In June of 2022, our modernized and newly updated nonprofit administration interface went live. Taking feedback from our platform users into consideration, we implemented new ideas and worked on streamlining the data entry process. Some new features include a Save/Update button at the ready as you scroll down the page, a more intuitive way to find the information that needs to be frequently updated, and historical rollup data on the dashboard. Overall, we’ve improved the interface with the nonprofit in mind to make the management experience easier and more efficient. Year to year updates on their information is now a simpler process.
