This approach provides members with regular updates on their impact and keeps them connected to the community they’re supporting. This unique model builds loyalty, provides sustained support to recipients, and helps members see their impact unfold over time.
A Kindness Campaign is a focused initiative designed to provide direct, meaningful support to people facing financial challenges.

At Standard Giving Co., we believe kindness should be the norm, not the exception. Our name reflects our mission to set a new standard for giving—one where generosity becomes a seamless part of everyday life. Through monthly (or annual) subscriptions, we pool resources to support people in need, making giving as easy and consistent as possible.
Given the nature of our mission and the immediate allocation of funds to active Campaigns and recipients, all subscriptions and verification fees are final and nonrefundable. This policy ensures the integrity of our operations and guarantees that every dollar contributed reaches those it’s intended to support.
Okay, you’ve probably asked yourself at some point, “What’s the difference between Standard Giving and something like GoFundMe?” The answer is simple: Standard Giving provides direct support. Unlike other platforms, we can pay off debts directly, delivering immediate financial relief in a way that’s both sustainable and impactful. This approach ensures that every subscription creates real, measurable change for those in need.

Generally, subscriptions like the ones offered through Standard Giving Co. are not considered tax-deductible, as they are not classified as charitable donations. However, tax laws can vary depending on your location and the specifics of your situation, so it's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional to get accurate advice based on your circumstances.
