Turn your organisation into visible impact.
Verified NGO and corporate accounts, built to back causes at scale. Public hubs and directories, multi-seat teams, a CSR pledge board, donation matching, and petition co-sponsorship. All the credibility, and none of the custody.
Verified NGO and corporate accounts, each with tailored tools
Companies can match donations and publish CSR pledges
Your verified badge travels onto every cause you back
Built for organisations that mean it
Verification unlocks a full toolkit for showing up credibly and backing causes at scale, without Ardent ever holding the money.
Verified NGO & corporate accounts
Register as an NGO or a company, submit your documents, and earn a verified badge after review. Verification is what unlocks hubs, directories, branding, and CSR tools, and what makes your backing count.
Public hubs & directories
Every verified org gets a public hub with its mission, focus areas, and a live feed of the campaigns, petitions, events, and services it runs, plus a place in a browsable, filterable NGO or corporate directory.
Backing that shows across the platform
Your verified badge and name (and logo, for NGOs) appear on every campaign and petition you run or support, so supporters can see the credible organisation standing behind a cause.
Multi-seat teams & analytics
Invite colleagues as admins, editors, or viewers and run everything from one shared dashboard, with org-wide analytics: petitions and signatures, campaigns and totals raised, events, and services at a glance.
A public CSR pledge board
Companies publish public CSR commitments to a shared board. Each pledge is reviewed before it appears, then fulfilled through Ardent’s giving rails or off-platform, because Ardent custodies no funds.
Donation matching & co-sponsorship
Propose to match donations to a cause (say two cedis for every one, up to a cap), or co-sponsor a petition to add institutional weight. Both are admin-reviewed, and a match is tallied against real donations, never money parked with Ardent.
How organisations get started
01
Register & get verified
Sign up as an NGO or a company and submit your documents. Verification unlocks the full organisation toolkit.

Set up your public profile, appear in the directory, and invite colleagues with the right roles.
03
Back causes
Run or support campaigns and petitions, publish a CSR pledge, or propose a donation match.
04
Show the impact
Your verified badge stamps everything you back, and org analytics track it all in one place.
Real commitment on the record, and Ardent still holds none of the money.
An organisation account unlocks capability and credibility, never a shortcut around the rules. Giving flows through the normal rails or off-platform, and Ardent custodies no third-party funds.
Being an NGO or a company never buys a fundraising shortcut: the only gate is public fundraising being enabled, exactly as it is for everyone else.
CSR pledges are public commitments, fulfilled through Ardent's giving rails or off-platform. Ardent moves and holds none of that money.
Donation matching is display and tally only: the multiplier is computed against real, settled donations and capped, never funds parked with Ardent.
CSR pledges, matches, and co-sponsorships are all reviewed by admins before they go public, so 'Backed by' always means something.
Public org profiles are served through a PII-safe directory projection; registration documents, addresses, and DPO contacts are never exposed.
Backing and co-sponsorship are endorsements, not control: the campaign or petition always stays with its owner.
Questions, answered
Anyone representing an NGO or charity, or a company, can register the matching account type. You submit supporting documents (registration, tax, and the like), and an admin reviews them before your account is marked verified. You can start using the platform right away, but verification is what unlocks public hubs, directories, branding, CSR pledges, matching, and co-sponsorship.
No. Account type never bypasses fundraising. The single gate on running a fundraiser is whether public fundraising is enabled for you (or you are a Foundation cause), and that is identical for every account on Ardent. Verification adds trust and tools, not a money shortcut.
A verified company proposes a match on a campaign: a ratio, such as one-to-one, up to a cap. Once an admin activates it, Ardent computes the matched amount from the campaign’s real, settled donations and shows the remaining match capacity. Ardent never moves or holds the matched funds; the company fulfils its match through the normal giving rails or off-platform. It is a public, accountable commitment, not an escrow.
It is a public wall of company CSR commitments. A verified company writes a pledge (with an optional amount and focus area) from its dashboard, an admin reviews it before it appears, and then it is fulfilled through Ardent’s secure giving rails or off-platform. As the board itself states, Ardent custodies no funds here.
Yes. The account owner can invite colleagues as admins, editors, or viewers, and manage the whole team from the org dashboard. Everyone works under one verified organisation, and org-wide analytics roll up all of its petitions, campaigns, events, and services in one view.
It means a verified organisation has publicly endorsed or co-sponsored that cause, shown with your badge (and logo, for NGOs). It is a credibility signal, reviewed by an admin before it appears. It never gives you any control over the campaign or petition, which always stays with its owner.
