For each online donation, a 7.75% + $0.30 will be applied at checkout. This covers a small management fee of 2.5% for ACT for Alexandria to partially offset extensive staff support, marketing, training, planning and hosting Spring2ACTion; a MightyCause platform fee of 2.75% for building & maintaining a secure site and live support; and a standard credit card company fee of 2.5% + $0.30 on a per transaction basis will apply. If a donor uses the bank account withdrawl (ACH) payment option, there is a 1.5% + $1.50 fee, capped at $5. Please note: ACH payments are subject to the Mightycause platform and ACT support fees. ACH payments will be available for donations of $100 or more.

Donors have the option to cover these fees for the organization. In 2025, 70.1% of donors covered fees, meaning the nonprofit(s) received 100% of the intended gift.

When a donor opts to cover the processing fees, they are making an additional, voluntary contribution (not purchasing a good or service) and the full amount charged to their card, including the fee, is tax-deductible as part of their total donation.

100% of ACT management fee goes directly to support, build and improve Spring2ACTion year over year. Without the financial support generated through fees this event would not be possible.

The fees for Spring2ACTion are significantly less than other types of fundraisers. A 65%-75% net profit is standard for events such as galas, golf tournaments, luncheons, races/runs etc.

For Spring2ACTion, nonprofits are making 93%+ net profit on donations.
