Donors
The shape of a gift.
A charity posts a registry.
The charity lists specific items they need, with quantities and a short note about each one. The list comes straight from the people doing the work.
You browse the registry.
Open any charity's page and see what's still needed, what's on its way, and what has landed. Each item shows the cost. Pick one that fits what you can do.
You chip in for an item.
Pay the cost with a card. The charity receives the money directly through Stripe. Neighbor Table never touches it, and we never take a cut.
The charity gets the item.
The charity buys what you covered, marks it on its way, then marks it landed once it arrives where it's needed.
You get a receipt.
Every gift comes with a receipt sent to your email. Charities on Neighbor Table are verified 501(c)(3) organizations, so your gift is tax-deductible.
Nonprofits
Claim your page, post your needs.
Find your page in the directory.
Every 501(c)(3) in Northern Arizona is already in our directory, pulled from the IRS public record. Search by name and claim it.
Connect your bank through Stripe.
Stripe handles the verification, the tax ID, and the bank routing. We never store any of it. About ten minutes with your account info on hand.
Post what your program needs.
Specific items, real quantities. Donors cover them. The money lands in your bank account directly through Stripe Connect.
What it costs
Neighbor Table takes nothing from a gift.
Donations route through Stripe Connect directly to the charity's bank account. Stripe's standard processing fee is shown to the donor before they give. Nonprofits don't pay to be listed and don't pay a platform fee.
Neighbor Table is the platform, not a charity. Tax-deductible receipts come from the receiving organization.
Common questions
The things people usually want to know before their first gift.
What if someone else covers the same item before I do?
The registry updates in real time. Once an item is fully covered, it moves to on its way and stops accepting new contributions. You'll never accidentally duplicate a gift.
Can I cover part of an item instead of the whole thing?
Some items are split into multiple units (like 12 reams of paper, 4 still needed). You can cover one unit at a time. Single-unit items have to be covered in full.
Do I need an account?
No. You can chip in as a guest with just an email for your receipt. An account is optional and lets you track what you've covered and save charities you care about.
What if I want to give more than the cost of one item?
Use Give now instead. That sends a lump-sum gift to the charity, separate from the registry. Both options live on every charity's page.
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Yes. Every charity on Neighbor Table is a verified 501(c)(3) and your receipt has everything you need for your taxes.
Can I cover something for a charity outside Northern Arizona?
Not yet. We are intentionally local to Northern Arizona for now. If you want to suggest a charity we don't list yet, write to us and we'll look into it.
