Add a PayPal Donate Button to your NonProfit Website

All nonprofits can benefit by adding a Paypal “Donate” button to their website, but few do.  Why?  It’s one of those maddeninly simple yet sublimely difficult tasks that are tedious to take on.  With that said, I’d like to show off a brand new PayPal “Donate” button that I just established this week on a nonprofit website.  It took me about two months, start to finish.  Don’t despair, you can do it too!  The time consuming part was asking different people for their part of the paperwork, and since the organization was in the process of changing bank accounts, we had to wait for that to conclude.

Check out my handiwork:  Blochman PTA.  Also, feel free to try out the process by making a donation to the Blochman PTA!  It might give the PTA president a heart attack to see hundreds of donations, wouldn’t that be grand???  (Oh, she’s a nice lady, we don’t want to actually give her a heart attack, maybe a fit of the giggles!)

Here’s what you’ll need to do, start to finish:

• Have a website!  If you don’t already have a website, please click on the upper right of this website on the GoDaddy icon.  They are absolutely FABULOUS to work with!  They have 24 hour phone support, and you can purchase your domain from them as well as hosting.  If you need help launching the software, just leave a comment on this post, I’m a volunteer webmaster to help non-profits get up and running.
• Have contact information!  You’ll need to tell PayPal who the spokesperson is.
• Have an email address and bank account!  You’ll need to provide this information, so start the ball rolling with these items!  The bank account will need to be in the name of your non-profit.
• Have a PayPal account!  Sign up here:  PayPal  Keep track of your userid and password for your organization.  You’ll only be able to open one for your organization.  PayPal is just like a bank account, so be smart with your security, keep the password safeguarded, and make on that is not easy to guess.
• Have the paperwork showing your official non-profit status!  (501(c)3 paperwork, etc.)
• Have access to a copy machine and fax!  Make a copy of your voided check. 
• Register through PayPal for the type of account you’d like, and how you’d like to receive donations. 
• Write up your business description, and fax the required paperwork to PayPal.  You’ll have the opportunity to sign up online for a fax cover sheet that you will use to submit your paperwork.
• Create a “Thanks” page on your website.  Once you’re approved you’ll be guided through the process to set up your “Donate” button.  You’ll be asked for the URL to direct to upon completion.  Want to see what I did for this?  (It’ll cost you a dollar!  Please …???)
• You’ll be given the opportunity to select the button you want to use.  Copy the code, and paste it onto a page or sidebar of your website.
• Test it!  Make a donation through your website!
