About nonprofit fundraising on Instagram
Beginning October 31, 2023, we partner exclusively with PayPal Giving Fund for nonprofits in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. All donations are irrevocable gifts to PPGF and can only be refunded in certain circumstances as outlined by PayPal Giving Fund’s Donation Refund Policy or when required by law.
Note: To avoid losing access to some fundraising tools, you can go to Nonprofit Manager and take the required action. You must review and accept our updated Charitable Donation Terms and elect to receive payouts from PPGF by the October 31, 2023 deadline.
