Gave through a charity’s website using GiveWise?

If you made a donation through a charity’s website and were directed to GiveWise (via GiveGenius), your tax receipt is still available — but only if you create a free Giving Fund. See the FAQ below for full details.

I gave through GiveWise on a charity’s website — where is my tax receipt?

To access your tax receipt, you’ll need to create a free Giving Fund with GiveWise. This allows us to:

  • Link your donation securely to you

  • Issue an official CRA-compliant receipt

  • Provide 24/7 access to your past giving and receipts

Why is this required? CRA guidelines require all tax receipts to be linked to a verified donor record. Creating a Giving Fund ensures your gift is properly attributed and receipted.

What if I didn’t create a Giving Fund when I gave? You can still create one now using the same email you used when donating. Once it’s set up, your receipt will appear under the Tax Receipts tab.

Can I still get a receipt without a Giving Fund? No. Donations made without a verified Giving Fund will not be provided a tax receipt through any other method. Tax receipting is self-serve and requires donors to create a free Giving Fund to access. We recommend creating one right away to ensure full access to your donation history and receipts.
