Enhanced Individual Account

What’s the difference between a Basic Account and Enhanced Account? In terms of functionality, they’re pretty much identical. Signing up for either one will allow you to take full advantage of all the RCRG site has to offer, as outlined in the list above.

With an Enhanced Account, however, you’ll also receive discounts on RCRG workshops, training courses, and special events. Indeed, if you’re a non-profit professional looking to hone your skills in volunteer management, fund development, or program evaluation (to name just a few of the topics we cover), an Enhanced Account is a great investment. At just $40 a year, it will pay for itself several times over.

Online Donations, RCRG, and Charitable Impact

Through the RCRG site, you can donate to any of our member organizations. Simply visit an organization's profile page, and click the 'Donate Here' button. You do not need an RCRG account to do this.

That's pretty straightforward, right? Okay, now onto Charitable Impact.

Charitable Impact is a really cool local company that runs an online charitable database. We've partnered with them to ensure our own donation platform is both easy-to-use and secure. In short, every donation made through the RCRG site is processed by Charitable Impact.

A Charitable Impact account is separate from an RCRG account, and to be clear, you don't need either to donate on our site. But if you're interested in a Charitable Impact account, we do encourage you to sign up, because it's a great way to manage your donations.
