How do I register my nonprofit in Benevity Causes Portal?

By registering on the Benevity Causes Portal, your organization will become part of Benevity’s global network, connecting you with donors, volunteers, and grant-makers who can help expand your reach and impact.

With an eligible profile, you’ll have access to corporate giving programs, donation matching, grants, and volunteer engagement opportunities—helping you increase funding, build relationships with corporate partners, and grow your mission-driven work.

Follow the steps below to register as an authorized representative of your organization’s account. 

Step 1 – Identify your operating country

Begin by selecting the country where your organization operates. Changing this later will reset your entire application, as the required information varies by region.

Step 2 – Check if your organization is already registered

Search for your organization by name or government ID. Follow this link if your nonprofit is already registered on the Benevity Causes Portal. 

Step 3 – Provide contact details

To register on behalf of your organization, you must have the authority to act as its representative. During the registration process, you’ll need to submit the following:

  • Letter of Authorization
  • Banking Information
  • Alternative Contact

Step 4 – Submit required documentation

Depending on the country of operation for your organization, you’ll need to provide:

  • Your organization's official, legally recognized name
  • The type of organization (e.g., charity, nonprofit)
  • The governing regulatory body in your country
  • A government-issued registration number
  • A description of your organization’s primary focus area

These country-specific requirements help validate your organization's charitable status.
