What we host

Two ways to organize grassroots giving

Every program on Rekonect operates under our 501c(3) umbrella. You bring the cause. We hold the nonprofit ground.

Ongoing

Community Support Funds

A real nonprofit home for the work that doesn’t end on a deadline. Meal trains, mutual aid pools, tenants’ defense funds, classroom funds, memorial scholarships — programs that keep going for as long as the need does.

How CSFs work
Time-bound

Social Impact Campaigns

Built for the moments that demand a fast, focused response. Disaster relief, medical bills, community projects, time-limited goals. We give your campaign the institutional weight of a real 501c(3), without the eighteen-month wait.

How it works

The institution, handled.

You focus on the cause. We handle the 501c(3), the donor receipts, the books, and the stewardship.

01 / Host

A real nonprofit, behind every program

Every program lives under Rekonect’s 501c(3). Donors give to a real nonprofit, get a real tax receipt, and trust their money is being held by an actual institution with actual oversight.

02 / Operate

Donations, accounts, disbursements

Our partner BrightLeaf Giving handles the donation platform, bookkeeping, and payment rails. So the money flows cleanly and the receipts are airtight.

03 / Steward

Funds used the way they were promised

Rekonect keeps authority over every program’s funds. Disbursements only go where the donors were told they’d go. That’s not branding. That’s the work.

Have a cause? Start a program.

If you’ve ever wanted to raise money for something that mattered and stopped because the system made it too hard — the system was the problem, not you.
