About Charity Charge

“Each and every day my passion for running Charity Charge is reignited by my daily conversations with our current nonprofit clients and new ones just learning about CC for the first time. This is not my job. This is my passion and mission in life. What we’re able to do for nonprofits is something no other ‘credit card company’ has bothered to do. I’m so proud of our credit card offering that’s helping nonprofits all across the country.“

“I was first exposed to Charity Charge when Stephen presented to my Social Entrepreneurship class during my junior year at the University of Texas. At the time I was also president of the UT Service Scholars program where I was personally volunteering and coordinating on behalf of other students to volunteer in the community. Participating in the service-learning course opened my eyes to a career that focuses on service and supporting the nonprofit community so joining the Charity Charge team has been a perfect fit.”

“As a dedicated supporter and partner of Stephen Garten for nearly six years, I have had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the profound impact Charity Charge has made on communities and individuals alike. Inspired by Stephen’s unwavering commitment and the tangible difference this organization brings, I am thrilled to contribute to its mission.”

“I have been an active member of the nonprofit community for many years, passionately supporting various causes and initiatives aimed at making a positive impact. I am thrilled to be a part of Charity Charge, where I can contribute to an organization that aligns with my values and dedication to social good. It is an honor to represent Charity Charge’s mission of empowering nonprofits through innovative financial solutions, and I am proud to be part of a team that is committed to enhancing the effectiveness and sustainability of the nonprofit sector.”

“I first joined Charity Charge as an intern before its launch in 2016, eventually becoming the company’s first employee. After stepping away for a few years to explore other industries and opportunities, I’m thrilled to be back with a team and mission that I’ve always deeply believed in. Returning to Charity Charge feels like coming home, and I’m excited to contribute to the incredible growth ahead. I’ve always found the way Charity Charge empowers nonprofits through financial services to be a truly inspiring combination.”

“As the host of the Giving Back Podcast, I’ve met hundreds of nonprofit, community and business leaders doing amazing things for those in need. I knew there was something special about Charity Charge. After watching Stephen Garten’s South by Southwest presentation and interviewing him, I realized that Charity Charge’s business model is based on one relentlessly optimistic principle: making it easy for people to do good. When I used my Charity Charge card the first time, I felt a little bit of joy knowing that my purchase helped a charity I know and love make a difference in someone’s life.  I still feel that joy every time I use my card.”
