About BrightLeaf Giving
BrightLeaf Giving was created for a common moment in modern philanthropy: the cause is real, the need is real, but the structure isn’t there yet.
Too many people with good intentions run into the same roadblocks.
You want to raise money responsibly, but launching a nonprofit can take time, paperwork, and resources you may not have.
BrightLeaf Giving exists to remove that friction without lowering the bar.
The problem BrightLeaf Giving solves
When fundraising happens without a proper charitable framework, everyone feels it:
Donor Uncertainty
Donors aren’t sure what they’re supporting or whether giving is tax-deductible
Operational Burden
Fund leaders get stuck managing logistics, rules, and follow-through that weren’t designed into the platform
Gift Limitations
Larger gifts (including donor-advised fund giving) can become difficult to handle
That uncertainty doesn’t just slow fundraising down. It quietly erodes trust.
Our approach: structured, stewarded, & simple
BrightLeaf Giving provides a compliant fundraising pathway backed by nonprofit partners, so donations are handled as charitable gifts inside an established framework aligned with IRS expectations.
This shows up in three ways:
Structure
Our programs are built to support legitimate charitable fundraising following IRS compliance, transparent administration, and responsible distribution.
Stewardship
We don’t leave you alone after launch. We support the process from setup through reporting and disbursement workflows, so funds move in a controlled and accountable way.
Simplicity
Our goal is to make fundraising easier to run and easier to trust.
Where it adds value, we also use trusted infrastructure. Disbursements can be delivered through our partnership with Crowded, which helps recipients access funds securely (including debit card and transfer options) while strengthening safeguards that reduce misuse.
