Charity Navigator

Donations to charities are investments in our collective future — so what if we treated them that way? #Causeway enables donors to create a giving portfolio of causes they care about. Choose the cause areas that matter to you and feel secure that the recipient organizations are effective and legitimate. With this launch, we are rolling out 6 managed charitable funds: Hunger, Homelessness, Animal Welfare, Global Health, Global Poverty, and Education.

At Charity Navigator, our passion for giving is as evident internally as it is in our external work. Many of our staff regularly donate their time, resources, and talent to causes they feel strongly about. After all, we wouldn't be here if we didn't care! This year, for #GivingSeason, we want to know about your team's giving. Does your office organize volunteer days? Does your company offer matching donations to charities? Whatever the method and cause, we'd love to hear about it! Your story might end up being featured in our upcoming posts, inspiring others to take action. It's a great way to kick off this season of generosity!

“My generosity serves as a catalyst, empowering both the charities I support and the individuals they serve, fostering a ripple effect of positive change.” Charity Navigator’s Grant Manager Mary Cornelsen, CFRE discovered her passion for philanthropy during a college internship, where she witnessed the remarkable impact a single individual can make within their community. One way she gives back to her own community is by volunteering her grant writing and fundraising skills to local nonprofits. As the Grant Manager, Mary’s primary role is securing funding to advance the organization’s mission. Her favorite part about working with Charity Navigator is the vibrant, genuine work culture that fosters camaraderie and connection. Whether it’s celebrating professional successes or sharing photos of pets in the Slack chat, Mary finds Charity Navigator a truly special organization to work with.
