WiseGiving – a New Giving Attitude

 

About WiseGiving

WiseGiving, launched by the Hong Kong Council of Social Service in 2007, aims to enhance charity accountability and transparency in Hong Kong. We have uploaded information such as NGO governance and finance for public access. It also provides a clearing house of critical social needs, how and what charities do to serve these needs, as well as how the public can support.

 

How does WiseGiving work?

For NGOs to be listed on the WiseGiving website, they must upload Governance and Finance information. The information will be in same format for easy reference. All local charitable organizations, not merely HKCSS members, are eligible to join if they agree to disclose the information required in our charity standards of transparency. Those listed NGOs are allowed to upload messages on social needs and their projects in the website. Through public education campaigns, we encourage the public to visit the website and make informed giving choices.

 

Who will benefit?

With information provided by WiseGiving, individual donors, corporate sponsors and foundation grantmakers will benefit from making informed decisions and wise giving choices. They can know how the money is spent and how they contribute to the community. We strongly believe that donors will give more generously if NGOs can demonstrate their accountability. NGOs will gain public support to serve critical social needs, and thereby, be better able to change the lives of the underprivileged in our community.

 

WiseGiving supports donors and foundations in identifying beneficiaries.

While it is not a fundraising platform, WiseGiving will support individual, corporate and other donors, including foundations, to identify and match beneficiaries. Indeed, some foundations have indicated that they will give preference to those NGOs listed in WiseGiving. Organizers of public fundraising campaigns have also worked with us to identify beneficiaries through the WiseGiving channel.

 

If you have any queries ...

WiseGiving is a public platform. We welcome any comments or queries on the operation and content of the website. We endeavour to do our best to clarify and verify the information provided by individual charities, particularly when queries arise. However, the information provided in the website is for reference only, and our Council cannot accept any liability for any decisions made according to the information provided.
