Agreement will assist with regulatory compliance, risk mitigation, and reputation protection for donations made through Blackbaud\u2019s YourCause\u00ae platform<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Charleston, SC and Alexandria, VA (July 9, 2024)<\/span><\/b> – <\/span>Blackbaud<\/span><\/a> (NASDAQ: BLKB), the leading provider of software for powering social impact, announced a partnership with <\/span>CAF America<\/span><\/a>, a global grantmaking organization, to support the processing of donations made through the YourCause\u00ae from Blackbaud\u00ae platform to charitable organizations based in India.<\/span><\/p>\n

YourCause from Blackbaud<\/span><\/a> provides modern, purpose-built software solutions designed to amplify the impact a company can make through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. YourCause expands what is possible for companies and their employees by connecting them to over nine million nonprofits globally through actions of giving, volunteering, social activity engagement, and grantmaking.<\/span><\/p>\n

Donations made through the YourCause platform are disbursed to charitable organizations through the <\/span>Blackbaud Giving Fund<\/span><\/a> in select markets. Due to regulatory requirements in some parts of the world, Blackbaud will select a third party to process payments to ensure a database of eligible and vetted nonprofits. Through this agreement with CAF America, the Blackbaud Giving Fund will establish a Charity Advisement Fund to process donations made through the YourCause platform to India-based nonprofits and charities.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>Blackbaud undertook an extensive vetting process to select a reputable organization that meets compliance with both U.S. regulations and local laws governing the movement of foreign charitable funds,\u201d said Matt Nash, executive director, Blackbaud Giving Fund. \u201c<\/span>This agreement with CAF America helps ensure that due diligence is conducted to confirm that charities have been vetted and validated to protect YourCause donors. We\u2019re excited to resume cross-border giving to support charitable organizations in India.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCAF America is pleased that Blackbaud selected our organization to assist with donation processing to charitable organizations located in India,\u201d said Jessie Krafft, interim CEO of CAF America. \u201cOur partnership\u2014and commitment to regulatory and compliance best practices\u2014will provide donors the opportunity to give to Indian-based charities with confidence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Blackbaud is committed to providing companies around the world with the tools and resources they need to support global programs, enabling them to engage employees and nonprofits everywhere they do business.
