Information for Partners
Greater Giving’s Partner Program is for companies and individuals who provide products and services that support nonprofit and school fundraising activities. A partnership with Greater Giving can help you leverage your marketing dollars and attract more clients. In addition, Greater Giving partners are paid a $150 referral fee when an organization they refer not in our sales tracking system becomes an Greater Giving customer.
To Qualify
Potential partners must be a going concern in good standing in the nonprofit industry. We recommend that you establish a working relationship with Greater Giving sales, marketing or client service staff prior to applying for acceptance into the Program.
