What is a GivingProfile?

Your public impact identity. A record of every contribution you make on OpenGiving, for as long as your account is open.

A GivingProfile is your public impact identity on OpenGiving.

It's a record of every contribution you make — whether you sell items that fund campaigns, buy from the marketplace, or contribute directly to causes.

It stays for as long as your account does. Delete your account and your profile goes with it, so nobody can look it up any more.

What Gets Tracked

Every action on OpenGiving builds your profile:

  • Total impact generated — cumulative funds you've helped raise
  • Campaigns supported — every cause you've contributed to
  • Items sold — your sales that routed funds to campaigns
  • Levels and tiers — your progression through Beginner, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond
  • Streaks — consistent weekly participation
  • Badges — achievements for milestones and special actions

Why Profiles Matter

Traditional giving is invisible. You contribute to a cause and that's it — no history, no record, no proof of your generosity.

GivingProfiles change that.

Your profile is:

  • Public — anyone can see your impact
  • Permanent — your history doesn't disappear
  • Recorded — every payment we settle lands on your profile
  • Portable — share it anywhere with a single link

How It Works

  1. Create an account — your profile starts empty
  2. Take action — sell, buy, or contribute
  3. Build your profile — every action adds to your record
  4. Share your impact — link to your profile to show your history

Use Cases

  • Personal identity — prove your giving history
  • Campaign credibility — established profiles signal trust
  • Seller reputation — buyers check seller profiles
  • Community recognition — top contributors appear on leaderboards

Every sale, purchase and contribution adds to your profile. The more you participate, the more it grows.
