If donors are transferred to third-party donation capability sites for donation processing, CampaignFinder.com does not assume no responsibility for any transactions processed by those sites.

Terms Applying to Charities
To submit a Campaign profile for your charity to be promoted for donations and volunteers through the Site, you must become a registered member. Once you have entered your charities campaign information, you have become the sole content and contact person for that particular campaign and you are responsible for preparing and posting the content for your Campaign. Since fundraising campaigns are usually a 4-7 year initiative, CampaignFinder.com may contact the organization to confirm whether you are the contact person for your charity/campaign; verify charity status and campaign content. However, we reserve the right to deny your campaign for any or no reason at our sole discretion. CampaignFinder.com will also have the authority to add content to your campaign.

You represent and warrant that all information you provide to us in connection with your campaign profile is true, accurate and complete.
