Why not just create a Friends-of organization?

Cost: Amutot typically spend at least 10% of fundraising on staff, offices, and legal fees for their Friends-of. IsraelGives has no setup or monthly fees.

Control: Friends-of organizations are legally independent of the Israeli amuta, and organizations sometimes lose control. With IsraelGives, you stay in control.

Speed: Setting up a Friends-of takes months of legal work. IsraelGives gets you fundraising internationally in days.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about IsraelGives international fundraising.

How does the tax receipt process work for international donors?

When a donor in the US, UK, Canada, or another supported country makes an online donation, our local partner foundation receives the donation and immediately issues a locally valid tax receipt by email. The partner then re-grants the funds to your organization in compliance with local laws. The process is seamless and entirely automatic for both you and your donor.

What is the fee for international donations?

For online donations, our average fee is 2.6% + 30¢ (after 64% donor fee coverage with Payments+). Checks and wires from the US are 2.9%; from other countries, 5%. An application fee of ₪1,000 applies for Canada, France, and Australia. See full pricing →

How quickly do I receive international funds?

International funds are transferred every 2–4 weeks, depending on the country and donation type. Online donations are batched and transferred on a bi-weekly schedule. Checks and wire transfers are included in the first invoice after they are received and processed.

Do I need a "Friends of" organization?

No. IsraelGives' partner network replaces the need for a Friends-of organization entirely. You avoid the cost, legal complexity, and governance risks of setting up and running an independent foreign entity. Our fee starts at 2.5% — a fraction of the typical 10%+ overhead of running your own Friends-of organization.

Can US donors give from their Donor Advised Fund?

Yes. America Gives (our US partner) is set up to receive DAF grants from all major providers. Donors simply instruct their DAF to grant to America Gives and reference your organization by name or ID number.

Which countries require an application fee?

A one-time ₪1,000 application fee applies for Canada, France, and Australia. The US and UK programs are approved as part of standard nonprofit registration with no separate application fee. All fees exclude Israeli VAT.
