Why Zeffy?

🌬 Zeffy is revolutionizing the social economy with simple, zero-fee web tools that save over 4,000 charities thousands of dollars each day.
🚀 Not only are we one of the fastest-growing online fundraising platforms, but we are also the only 100% free platform that is purpose-built to help nonprofits.
🌎 We're experiencing rapid growth all over North America. In Canada, we are tripling the number of active nonprofits each year. And after only having launched operations in the U.S. in January 2022, we already have over 1,000 U.S.-based organizations using our platform.
✌️ We're pretty stoked, to say least. Beyond increasing our collective social impact, we're assembling a dream team of passionate people to take on the challenges that lie ahead. If you want to come along for the ride, we'd love to meet with you!

  • Are passionate, curious and not afraid to learn and try new things
  • Are looking to have a positive impact on society
  • Know how to prioritize between what needs to be done perfectly and what needs to be done efficiently
  • Are ambitious and want to create something big by changing the future of charities across North America
  • Come up with easy solutions to complex problems
  • Hate long meetings and inefficiency
