Stand up a dedicated giving page within minutes when a community emergency requires immediate, trackable public giving.

Parks & library capital projects

Collect gifts toward a specific facility or renovation, with a running total the public — and your board — can see reflected in reporting.

Accept recurring and one-time gifts to a fire or police charitable fund, kept separately reportable from general municipal accounts.

Public-sector giving, answered

Can our foundation keep donation records separate for public reporting or audits?

Yes — every gift is itemized in your dashboard and exportable, so records are ready for board meetings, financial audits, or public information requests.

How quickly can we launch a giving page during an emergency?

A new giving link can be live in minutes, so your community fund can start accepting trackable donations as soon as a need is identified.

Is this different from how we accept municipal fees or tax payments?

Yes — WGC Payments is built for voluntary charitable giving to affiliated foundations and community funds, not for tax or fee collection.

Can multiple departments or funds share one account with separate reporting?

Yes — dedicated giving links per fund or initiative let each program's donations stay separately trackable within one organization account.
