Claim your Charity Account

When you claim your charity page and account on Charitable Impact, you get access to a Charity Account where you can do things like:

  • Customize your charity page on Charitable Impact with a logo and description 
  • Set up direct deposit to receive gifts faster
  • Thank and engage with your supporters 
  • Create Giving Groups and Campaigns to raise money for your charity's initiatives
  • Add a donation button to your charity website to accept donations through Charitable Impact
This feature is currently only available on the web, and is not yet available on the mobile app.

Claim with an access code

If you’ve received a gift from a donor on Charitable Impact in the past, a cheque would have been mailed with a letter that includes an access code. You can claim your charity page using this access code. 

  1. Go to the Claim Charity page and enter the access code. Select Claim your charity.
  2. Create an Impact Account if you don't already have one. Otherwise, log in to your existing Impact Account. Your Charity Account is accessible from your Home screen.
  3. You can now customize your charity page, access donor and gift information, activate direct deposit, and invite additional administrators to manage your Charity Account with you.

Without an access code

  1. Email us at hello@charitableimpact.com with the name and registration number of the charity you wish to claim.
  2. We complete a manual verification process in order to grant administrative privileges to the charity page. To speed up the process, please ensure that you provide us with one of the following pieces of information:
    1. An email that is listed on your charity's Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) profile online as the “Charity Email Address”.
    2. A link to the charity’s official website that confirms your email’s association with the charity. This website should be displayed on CRA’s listing for your charity as the “Charity Website Address”.
    3. A letter signed by a current Director/Trustee that authorizes your email to access the charity page. (Please note that the Director/Trustee must be named on the most recent T3010 report found on CRA’s listing for your charity.)
  3. We will send an invitation to the verified email for you to claim your charity. If you don't have an Impact Account, you will be prompted to sign up for one. Otherwise, you can just log in to your Impact Account. Your Charity Account is accessible from your Home screen.
  4. You can now customize your charity page, access donor and gift information, activate direct deposit, and invite additional administrators to manage your Charity Account with you.
