Charities in both Canada and the U.S. can create a profile on WellFunded. That said, we're currently focused on serving the Canadian philanthropic community as we scale. U.S. expansion is in progress—stay tuned!
No, only charities who want to connect with the largest community of Philanthropists in Canada. Charities can sign up for free to create a full profile and showcase their work. We also sync with the CRA database, so you can search for registered charities even if they haven’t joined us yet. If you find a great organization that isn’t on WellFunded, you can tap “Notify Charity” to invite them to join the platform.
There is no financial exchange that occurs between a Philanthropist and a Charity on WellFunded, and we certainly do not take a percentage of any gift. WellFunded is a marketplace for connecting donors and charities.
WellFunded for individuals starts at $100/month. We're offering introductory pricing during our first year as we continue building the platform alongside early users. See our Pricing page for details—or reach out to discuss access or what plan fits best for you.
These are great tools for tax-efficient giving, but they don’t always standardize the grant process or provide insight into a charity’s leadership, needs, and long-term plans. Our tool complements—and in some cases integrates with—Donor Advised Funds, allowing you to continue using your DAF while gaining deeper insights, support, and assistance by adding a WellFunded account to your giving strategy.
To open a Philanthropist account, the information required is minimal. Name, phone number and email address are all that is required to get up and running!
