Once you're registered for CoMoGives 2025, accessing your organization dashboard only requires a few quick steps!
Here's how:
You’ll know you’re on your organization’s page when you see a dashboard on the left-hand side of the screen.
This is likely because you have logged in at the wrong place. Organization admins should access their organization profile via comogives.com, not Mightycause.com. The comogives.com access point allows admins to access their organization's dashboard via the giving event connection which provides them with access to features that an organization not affiliated with a giving event would otherwise have to pay for.
Your organization's profile page is the center of your presence on CoMoGives.com. Your profile page should have basic information about your organization, such as your mission statement, contact information, and a gallery where you can upload photos or videos.
To begin editing your page, on the left-hand side dashboard, you'll want to head to "Organization Page." This section will have all of the administrative tools and features you need to customize your page.
This helpful support article provides key tips and best practices for making your organization's page as strong as possible.
Head to your organization page on CoMoGives.com. Once on your page, copy the URL link in your browser. Share this link with your supporters to bring them to your organization page. From there, supporters can read more about your organization, donate, or set up a peer-to-peer fundraising page. You can also embed a donation form directly onto your website. Click here to learn step-by-step directions.
Yes. Once you’ve been approved as an administrator of your organization page, you can add and remove other admins as well as designate lead contacts. You can have up to 10 organization administrators on your organization’s page.

From there, you'll see your fundraiser's profile and dashboard and can make changes as needed.

Mightycause’s database is regularly updated from the IRS database of 501(c)(3) public charities. If your organization’s status has changed, your pages may become unverified until the IRS re-lists your organization as approved or until you provide Mightycause recent documentation from the IRS confirming you are still an approved 501(c)(3) public charity.
To confirm your organization’s nonprofit status or request documentation, call the IRS (toll-free) at 1.877.829.5500.
