Patagonia is working with For Good(formerly Network for Good) a nonprofit that specializes in facilitating donations from the public to nonprofits by operating as a donor-advised fund.
In order to ensure your organization receives 100% of the intended donation, Patagonia covers the processing fees on behalf of the donor.
For Good processes the donation, sends an email confirmation and tax receipt to the donor, and disburses the funds to your organization. For Good will automatically send your monthly donations via check or direct deposit if enrolled, as long as your organization is in good standing with relevant state and federal authorities.
Direct deposit allows donations to go directly into your bank account. Visit their website to learn more.
