Redemption options for Charitable Donations

This article will help you to understand charitable donations as a redemption option for your awarded points.

Note: You are able to donate the points your organization has awarded you to charities and non-profits within the Awardco platform. Below are some FAQ's and their corresponding answers. 

How were the charitable organizations selected? Are they aligned with Awardco's values?

We do our absolute best to offer as many legitimate charities as we can through what our vendor offers. Our values are recognize the good, do great things, and be even better, but we have not officially mapped any of these values to the charities that are available in the Charitable Donations catalog.

All of these charities are in the U.S., but I don’t live in the U.S. Can I still donate?

Currently, Awardco only offers US-based charities as part of our charity catalog. Fortunately, all users (no matter where in the world they are located) can donate to these charities through the Awardco platform.

What if I want to donate to a charity that is not listed in the charities catalog?

If a user wants to donate to a charity that isn’t included in the charity catalog, they will have to process those donations outside of the Awardco platform.

How do taxes work with charitable donations on the Awardco platform?

For charitable donations, it will be the user/employee who is donating points who receives a tax write off for the donation.
