GlobalGiving connects donors and companies with vetted community-led nonprofits in 175+ countries. Our name and reputation are sometimes misused by scammers to deceive people around the world.
Scams using GlobalGiving's name can take many forms, including:
- Fake grant or funding notifications
- Fake job offers and employment scams
- Fake donation requests
- Fake social media accounts impersonating GlobalGiving or our staff
If you receive an unexpected message claiming to be from GlobalGiving, don't send money or share personal information until you've confirmed the communication is legitimate.
