Charitable exists to provide a compelling WordPress alternative to mainstream fundraising software.

The free core plugin allows you to create fundraising campaigns, carefully designed to blend in with your website. You can set fundraising goals for your campaigns, or give them an end date if they are time-sensitive campaigns. Donations can be accepted with PayPal or as offline donations, with credit card donations available through payment gateway extensions.

Charitable is not just another donation plugin. A growing library of extensions add support for features like anonymous donations, campaign updates and custom avatars for donors and campaign creators. The Ambassadors extension allows non-profits to run peer-to-peer fundraising campaigns on their website, as well as supporting crowdfunding campaigns for personal causes.
