We ask for banking information purely as a way of confirming that the person who is trying to claim this organization is, in fact, an authorized member of the organization. The thinking is that only a true organization representative - e.g. a Director, Manager, Treasurer - would have access to these details.
Providing us with this information does NOT automatically sign your organization up for ACH/Wires. You can actually indicate your disbursement preferences after your ownership application is approved by logging back into the FrontDoor website.

There are two primary types of disbursements that are generated from CyberGrants portals - grants and employee gifts/matches. Since grants are initiated by organization applicants, they will not see any funding without participating in the grantmaking process. Matches made directly to organizations typically require confirmation before disbursement and so recipients have the option to not confirm them. If your organization would prefer to not receive any support from a particular company or its employees, please reach out to us using this support form.

CyberGrants works with the Internal Revenue Service and other global databases to guarantee that nonprofits meet the charitable standards of our corporate customers. FrontDoor allows us to thoroughly vet the individuals who claim to represent these nonprofits to ensure that they are the right person(s) to make decisions on the organization's behalf. While nonprofit organizations may already have CyberGrants accounts with particular companies, FrontDoor requires additional vetting to allow an account to span across customers and therefore a new account. You can still keep your original corporate accounts if you prefer.

You will also have access to ‘Payment Search’ which will allow you to search for payment number information found in your reports or bank remittance for any organization you are associated with.

Your organization's specific tax status should be listed underneath the "Public Charity Status" in the top right corner of the determination letter that you received from the IRS. We have provided an example of an official IRS determination letter for you to reference.
Why am I required to select a particular substatus?
Many CyberGrants funders restrict the organizations they support to particular subsections underneath 501(c)(3). Therefore, you must select a specific tax status when submitting an ownership request. You cannot simply select "501(c)(3)". Common examples of subsections include "170(B)(1)(a)(i)" for religious organizations or "170(B)(1)(a)(ii)" for public colleges & universities.
US Governmental Entities
Municipalities, first responders, public libraries, parks departments, and similar US governmental entities are exempt from federal income tax and may be eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions under Section 170(c)(1) of the IRC. Since they are not technically 501(c)(3) organizations, select "US Governmental Entity" for these types of organizations.
Note that we require different documents to certify their equivalent status and capture the contact information for an officer we can speak with if we have questions. Please provide one of the following if you represent a US governmental entity:
- An IRS-issued 4076c Governmental Information Letter.
- A US Governmental Entity self-attestation letter. We have provided an example of a self-attestation letter along with instructions on how to generate one.
Note that on both types of letters you must provide your federal - not state - Tax ID number.

FrontDoor limits the organizations displayed in the donation console for a few reasons:
Contact us for more information
- Payment Preferences - only organizations with complete Payment Preferences can be displayed. Check to see if your missing organization has Payment Preferences configured in the FrontDoor 'Organizations' tab.
- Ownership - only organizations where you are the owner will be displayed. If you see your preferred organization listed on the 'Organizations' tab with a different owner, ask them to confirm receipt of this gift or to make you the owner of that organization.
- New chapter/location - it's possible that the client has a chapter/location that you have not registered in FrontDoor yet. Contact us to have a new location added.
- IRS/NCES status - only organizations with IRS/NCES status that are eligible for the client program will be displayed.

Company-specific Access Codes for your organization(s) are often shared on emails, letters, and check stubs. The best way to find one is to locate a recent matching gift confirmation message and look for "Access Code" in the message body.
