For nonprofits

One platform to engage every supporter, volunteer, and donor

Kannect brings your events, communication, volunteers, and fundraising into one platform built for mission-driven organizations. No algorithm between you and the people who care about your cause.

7-day free trial. A card is required, which keeps Kannect spam-free. Cancel anytime.

Built for your mission

What Kannect commits to nonprofits

0%

Kannect fee on donations. You keep every dollar Kannect would take. Standard Stripe processing (2.9% + $0.30) still applies.

100%

Reach. Every opted-in supporter, every donor ask. No algorithm in the way.

2%

Fee on paid events. For ticketed galas and fundraisers, vs. 10–14% on Eventbrite.

0

Ads next to your cause. Your community is never the product.

The nonprofit stack, retired

One platform instead of six

Most nonprofits run on Donorbox or GoFundMe for donations, Mailchimp for email, Eventbrite for galas, a Facebook page for reach, and a Google Sheet for the volunteer list. Kannect retires all of it.

Donations & campaigns

0% Kannect fee on nonprofit donations. Only standard Stripe.

Eventbrite

Galas, walks, volunteer days

Paid events at 2%, not 10–14%. Free events at 0%.

MailchimpConstant Contact

Supporter communication

Unlimited announcements that reach every opted-in supporter.

Facebook

Reaching your community

100% reach, not the 5% that an ad-driven feed allows.

The problem

Your mission runs on tools that work against you

Most nonprofits juggle a donation page, an email tool, an events platform, a Facebook page, and a volunteer spreadsheet. Supporters slip through the gaps between them. And the social platforms you depend on charge you, in reach, to talk to people who already chose your cause.

Supporters never see your posts

Facebook shows your update to a fraction of your followers. The people who care most miss the ask entirely.

Volunteers and chapters drift apart

Coordinating chapters, volunteers, and programs across separate tools means duplicated work and dropped handoffs.

Donors fade after one gift

A standalone donation tool has no way to keep a first-time donor connected to your mission afterward.

Built for your mission

Nonprofit engagement and fundraising in one place

Kannect combines the tools nonprofits rely on to grow and sustain their communities, run from a single dashboard.

Fundraising and donations

Launch donation campaigns and collect contributions inside your community. 0% Kannect fee on nonprofit donations, only standard Stripe fees.

Events and volunteer drives

Run galas, volunteer days, and town halls with RSVPs, free or paid tickets, reminders, and check-in.

Communication without algorithms

Reach every supporter who opted in by announcement, push, and in-app message. No feed deciding who hears you.

Volunteers, chapters, and programs

Organize supporters into chapters, committees, and volunteer teams, each with its own onboarding and updates.

A community website and resources

Give supporters a public home for your events, programs, stories, and clear ways to get involved.

Engagement insight

See who shows up, who gives, and who is drifting, so you can act before you lose a supporter.

Fundraising, in depth

Fundraising your board can actually report on

Goal-based campaigns, sustainer giving, manual gifts, tax notices, and Stripe payouts. Built into the platform, not bolted on. Registered nonprofits don't pay Kannect platform fees on donations.

Goal-based campaigns

Set a goal amount, a deadline, an image, and a tax-deduction notice. Run ongoing sustainer drives with no end date, or fixed-window campaigns with a finish line. Donors give from the app, the website, or Kannect Discover.

Sustainer giving

Recurring monthly gifts that keep your mission funded between events. Donors set it once and continue supporting you without you asking again. Cancellations and changes happen inside the same record.

Manual and offline gifts

Log cash, checks, in-kind, and pledged gifts against the same campaigns. One donations table for everything that came in, no matter how it arrived. Status tracking for pledged vs received.

Stripe payouts to your account

Online donations settle directly to your nonprofit's bank account through Stripe in three business days. Kannect never holds your money. 0% Kannect fee on donations from registered nonprofits, plus standard Stripe processing fees.

Tax-deduction notices

Every donor receipt carries your nonprofit's tax-deduction notice automatically. Compliance built into the receipt, not bolted on by your accountant in January.

Donor record, not donor spreadsheet

Every gift attaches to the donor's record alongside the events they attended and the campaigns they supported. The 360-degree view your board has been asking for.

Supporter tiers

Member tiers that match how donors actually give

Run a free supporter tier, a monthly sustainer tier, and a major-gift tier from the same place. Each comes with its own application, its own welcome flow, and its own home on your community site.

Free supporter

The on-ramp. Newsletter, events, occasional asks. Auto-approve, no friction. The tier that builds your list.

Monthly sustainer

The middle tier. A monthly gift, branded onboarding, exclusive updates, and a recognition page. Sustainer revenue without a separate platform.

Major-gift circle

The top tier. Manual approval, custom welcome from leadership, named recognition, gala invitations. Run your major-donor program with the same record as the rest of your members.

Why Kannect

Independent. Verified. On your side.

Two things make Kannect different from the platforms nonprofits usually settle for.

Independent and founder-run

Bending Spoons, a holding company that buys consumer apps and raises prices, now owns both Meetup and Eventbrite. Kannect is independent and answers to the organizations it serves, not to an acquirer. Your budget is safer here.

Verified and spam-free

Every organization joins through a credit-card-verified trial that stops bots and fake organizations. When a supporter finds your nonprofit on Kannect, they know it is real, and so do you.

Proof

Affordable, and free where it counts

Plans start at $23/mo billed yearly, or $29/mo month to month. Every plan includes a 7-day free trial.

30%+
