How long does it take for a charity to receive my donation?
Most donations to U.S.-based charities reach the charity’s disbursement account (via Chariot) within 24–48 hours of the donation date. If a charity is not signed up for electronic payments with Charity, the donation will be sent as a paper check. Paper checks are processed in the same timeframe, but delivery via USPS usually takes 5–20 business days.
Donations to international charities follow a separate timeline through CAF America. You can learn more about international distribution timelines here: Article: How and When Will a Charity Receive my Donation? U.S. & International Donations.
