Uncommon Giving’s app makes it easy for anyone to deposit funds, grow their giving, and donate to the causes they care about.
Unlock a cutting-edge giving experience with the Uncommon Wallet: a donor-advised fund (DAF) you can access anytime, anywhere.
A DAF is a tax-smart, charitable giving account that’s historically only been available to the wealthy. Today, Uncommon Giving is making DAFs accessible to everyone. Contribute to your giving wallet as frequently as you like, easily track donation records for tax purposes, and discover new causes to support—all from a convenient mobile app.
The Uncommon Giving app allows you to organize all your charitable giving in one streamlined account with ease. Here’s how it works:
Register for Uncommon Giving and get your personal charitable giving account.
Add funds to your wallet at any time, even if you don’t know how you want to distribute them yet.
Browse vetted nonprofits and donate to the causes that matter to you.
Supercharge your generosity and generate more impact. You can fund the Uncommon Wallet with either cash or appreciated assets you’ve been holding. Not only does this make your donations more impactful, but it can also enhance tax savings. Get ready to give even more to the causes that are most important to you.
Before you give, take your time finding the perfect fit for your generosity. Explore diverse causes and organizations that spark your passion while funding your charitable giving account, then distribute donations when you’re ready. After all, giving should be joyful—not stressful.
Browse over 1.8 million vetted, 501(c)(3) nonprofits in the growing Uncommon Giving community. Filter organizations by cause area or locality, and check out personalized recommendations based on your giving activity. Or, give to a UGIV Fund: a solution-oriented giving fund that supports several nonprofits working toward a common goal.
Compile cash and appreciated assets, then spread your generosity across multiple nonprofits that need support.
Keep your entire philanthropic history in one place and make donations anytime, from anywhere.
Claim immediate tax deductions when you add money to your donor-advised fund, and save on any donated appreciated assets.
A charitable giving account, also known as a donor-advised fund (DAF), is a personal fund where you hold money that’s dedicated to charitable giving. You can add money to the account at any time (and receive a tax deduction that year!), then donate it to various nonprofits later.
You add money to your Uncommon Wallet in the form of cash, stocks, cryptocurrencies, or other appreciated assets that you want to donate to charity in the future. If your employer uses Uncommon Giving, they can also add funds to your account.
Then, you decide when, how, and to which organizations you want to distribute the money. At the end of the year, you get one streamlined tax receipt that includes all of your donations.
For example, say that you added $1,000 to your Wallet over the course of the year. You might give $100 to Habitat for Humanity in April, $500 to a disaster relief campaign in August, and $20 each month to a local nonprofit. At the end of the year, you’ll receive a single tax receipt for your $1,000 contribution, and you can save the remaining amount to donate later!
Yes, it’s completely free to create an Uncommon Giving account as an individual. There’s no charge to join.
There’s no minimum balance required to open and maintain an Uncommon Giving charitable giving account. You can donate as little as $10 or as much as you like at any time.
You can contribute cash (via ACH, debit, or credit card), stocks, supported cryptocurrencies, and other non-cash assets to your Uncommon Wallet. Then, donate the funds to various nonprofits at your discretion. If you have an Uncommon Wallet through your employer, you may also donate any funds added to your Wallet by your company.
Yes! You don’t have to work for a company that uses Uncommon Giving to open your own Uncommon Wallet. You can create an account on your own at any time.
