[Endaoment](http://app.endaoment.org) is a public charity that offers Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) and facilitates donations to nonprofits. We've created a platform that allows folks to seamlessly make donations of any asset to over 1.8 million nonprofit organizations.

**Our mission is to manage and encourage efficient charitable giving using emerging technologies.**

We're focused on making the most secure and easy-to-use giving platform for both Donors and Organizations interested in modern charitable giving and the myriad of assets that donors hold.

<Warning>
  **Nonprofits do not need an Endaoment account.** Accounts on Endaoment are exclusively for donors who wish to open and manage Donor-Advised Funds. As a nonprofit, you receive grants without creating an account or logging in.
</Warning>

## How Endaoment Works for Nonprofits

Donors use our platform to contribute assets (including cryptocurrency, stock, and more) and recommend grants to organizations like yours.

**You don't need to do anything to start receiving grants**—Endaoment handles everything. When a donor recommends a grant to your organization, we take care of the entire process:

* Converting donated assets to USD
* Conducting required due diligence
* Transferring funds directly to your organization
* Confirming any restrictions if requested

All you need to do is [claim your organization](#claiming-your-organization) to tell us where to send the funds.

## Finding Your Organization

Your nonprofit likely already has a profile on Endaoment. Any US-registered 501(c)(3) organization can receive grants through our platform.

### Search for Your Organization

1. Visit [app.endaoment.org](https://app.endaoment.org)
2. Use the **search bar** to find your organization by name or EIN
3. Click on your organization to view its profile page

<Tip>
  You can also access your organization's page directly at `app.endaoment.org/orgs/YOUR-EIN` (replace `YOUR-EIN` with your organization's EIN).
</Tip>

### Explore Organizations

You can also browse organizations using our [Explore page](https://app.endaoment.org/explore):

1. Navigate to **Explore** in the main navigation
2. Use filters to narrow down by category, location, or other criteria
3. Search within results to find your specific organization

***

## Claiming Your Organization

Claiming your organization is a one-time process that tells Endaoment where to send grant funds. This is the only action required from your nonprofit.

Endaoment creates a dedicated Ethereum address for every nonprofit organization that receives a grant from one of our DAFs. Think of this address as an escrow account for holding grant awards until you're ready to move them elsewhere.

<Info>
  You do not need an Endaoment account or any crypto experience to claim your organization and receive funds via ACH.
