Outreach to your full list
Broadcast appeals, monthly newsletters, automated receipts, and printed letters. Email and physical mail from one composer with merge fields, per-segment delivery, and PDF output for print runs.
Smart Embed
Not a screenshot. Click through every flow your donors will use.
Switch between sponsorship browsing, trip fundraising pages, and donation forms. Click any child, register for a trip, walk through checkout. It's the exact experience your visitors get, and the same flows drop into your existing site (WordPress, Webflow, Framer, or custom) with three lines of code.
Photo Privacy
Auto-blur or sticker faces on recipient photos. Public visitors see protected images. Sponsors see the real ones.
Preset Amounts & Defaults
Set default donation amounts, frequencies, and designations per program. Donors see exactly what you want them to.
Brand Matching
Pick your theme color and the embed matches your site. Light and dark mode supported out of the box.
6 Embed Types
Sponsorships, trips, participant pages, donation forms, donor signup, and paginated browsing. All from one SDK.
Auto-Resizing
Embeds adjust height as content changes. No scrollbars, no fixed heights, no layout fights.
Callbacks & Events
Hook into donation completions, form submissions, and errors. Track conversions without guessing.
Donor Portal
Donor CRM for small and mid-size nonprofits. Your donors use it too.
Give eligible donors a configured self-service portal for giving history, sponsorship information, profile changes, supported payment actions, and communication. Available actions depend on your organization's permissions, gateway, and portal setup.

- Tax receipt downloads
- Giving history & impact timeline

“Everything we needed was there and then some. Being able to turn daily operating duties over to a program that runs in the background of our website was an answer to prayer. I am sure more children were able to get an education because of HelpYouSponsor.”
Danny Cunningham
President, 4 Him in Africa Ministries
“Since 2014, HelpYouSponsor has been a cornerstone of our mission to bring hope to children in extreme poverty in Nicaragua. This program has been instrumental in connecting sponsors with children and ensuring every child receives the care they deserve.”
