How Charities and Foundations
Can Benefit from Charity Credit Cards

We probably all have our favorite charities to which we make contributions. Perhaps sometimes we think we would like to give more, or give on a more regular basis, than we actually do. If that thought strikes a chord with you, consider applying for a foundation or charity credit card. Using one of these cards is a great way to consistently and automatically support the cause or causes you believe in.

A charity credit card works like other rewards cards, except that the rewards go not to you, the consumer, but to the charity or foundation with which the card is associated. Every purchase you make with these charity cards supports the work of the charity or foundation.

Charity credit cards are competitive with the best of other types of card. Some cards offer you reward points, 0% introductory APR, and competitive offers on balance transfers and APRs. Interest rates for charity credit cards have the same range as other cards, so you can get excellent deals whilst also contributing on a regular basis to a worthwhile cause. Whenever you use your charity card, you can have the joy of contributing to a good cause.
