Marketing Guidelines
Impact uses its digital platforms to amplify the reach and visibility for charities by using the information provided in your charity profile. By creating content, Impact aims to: Engage, educate and inform donors of the work being done by charitable organisations. Increase awareness and support for charitable causes. Connect donors to the causes that resonate with them. Celebrate success and achievement for the sector as a whole. Provide greater transparency in the donation process. All parties must have the proper authorisation to use an image or content. These terms are included as part of a Memorandum of Understanding with Impact and outlined as follows: The content must accurately represent the service, or message being promoted. Content should respect diverse cultures, traditions and communities. Content must be positive and not present anyone in a vulnerable or submissive manner. Images should not in any way endanger or stigmatise the people they include. For organisations using stock images in their marketing materials, this must be communicated with Impact to ensure full transparency.

The 100% Impact Model
One of the most frequent questions from donors is how we operate for free. Here we outline our community funding model: No Processing Fees: We absorb transaction costs so 100% of the donation goes to you. Impact Supporters & Community Fund: Our operations are funded by a separate group of donors and partners. Monthly Remittance: Funds are remitted to your nominated bank account on the 20th of each month.
Operational Changes
It is the responsibility of the charity to notify Impact Aotearoa immediately of any significant changes in operations that may affect your ability to apply donations toward their intended purpose. This includes, but is not limited to: Changes in Donee Status or Charitable Registration. The suspension or completion of a specific project or "Impact Unit" listed on the platform. Any internal restructuring that alters your delivery model. You may request an update to your profile at any time by contacting our support team at info@charityimpact.org.
