In the world of investing, every cent has the power to grow, but what if your money could do more than just generate returns? What if it could change lives? That’s exactly what EasyEquities' Donate for Good feature is all about - giving investors the opportunity to make a difference with just a few clicks.
What is Donate for Good?
Donate for Good is a unique feature on the EasyEquities platform that allows investors to seamlessly donate to charitable organisations while buying shares. Each month, a new charity is featured, ensuring that a diverse range of causes receive support. By weaving philanthropy into investing, we enable our community to build wealth while actively supporting impactful causes that uplift and transform lives.
Why Was Donate for Good Created?
At EasyEquities, our mission is to democratise wealth by making investing accessible to everyone. But we also recognise that true wealth extends beyond financial gains; it’s about enriching lives. The Donate for Good initiative was launched during the lockdowns of 2020, providing an easy way for investors to support charities during a critical time. Since its inception, this feature has helped raise over R1.5 million, supporting causes that range from education and healthcare to wildlife conservation and disaster relief.
How Can You Donate for Good?
It’s as simple as investing:
Log in to your EasyEquities account.
Find a share in your ZAR wallet you'd like to add to your portfolio.
Once you've entered your purchase amount, under the transaction costs breakdown you'll see the option to specify an amount you'd like to donate (either R5, R50 or R500).
Complete your purchase and voila - you've donated with just a few clicks!
You'll also earn one Thrive level when you Donate for Good.
There are no hidden fees, no complicated processes - just a direct way to support organisations that are making a real impact.
The Power of Collective Giving
A single donation might seem small, but when thousands of our investors come together, the results are extraordinary. With over R1.5 million donated to over 50 charities to date, our EasyCommunity has proven that small acts of kindness, when combined, can create ripples of change.
So, why not make your investments work double-time? Grow your wealth while making a real difference.
Because investing in a better world is always a good idea.
