CharityFinders is an excellent place to work! We offer the most powerful e-philanthropy tool available – backed up by top-notch professional services. Our client base spans most US states and several other countries, including all East African countries. Our reputation is outstanding, and we are widely praised for our 24/7 customer service. CharityFinders’ executive team speaks regularly for dozens of nonprofit conferences and events around the US and East Africa. We are growing rapidly, and need forward-thinking people who want to make a difference in the world by helping nonprofits to use the Internet strategically – and by extension, helping those served by these nonprofits.
We are often told that people like us not only for our tool and the professional service we provide, but perhaps most importantly, they like us as people. Everyone at CharityFinders is friendly, genuinely interested in doing whatever it takes to make our prospects and clients happy, and enjoys what they do and the impact it is having on our planet!
