Adapting to modern giving habits

Many donors no longer carry cash on a daily basis. Card and contactless payments, including credit cards, smartphones, and digital wallets, have become part of everyday life. A donation kiosk allows your nonprofit organization to accept donations using these familiar methods, making it easier for supporters to contribute whenever they are present.

This helps ensure your fundraising remains accessible and aligned with modern giving habits.

Encouraging meaningful and spontaneous donations

A clearly visible donation kiosk allows supporters to contribute when they feel connected to your mission. Whether at your office, events, community spaces, or partner locations, donors can select a campaign and donation amount through a simple and intuitive interface.

This makes it easier to capture in-person donations and increase participation without adding complexity.

Clear and transparent donation management

Each donation is recorded automatically, helping simplify accounting, reporting, and financial oversight. Nonprofit teams can track fundraising activity in real time, maintain accurate records, and ensure transparency for donors, partners, and regulatory requirements.

This improves operational efficiency while strengthening trust in your organization.

Supporting nonprofit campaigns and charitable programs

Donation kiosks allow organizations to present multiple campaigns clearly, helping donors support the initiatives most important to them, such as:

Each campaign can include descriptions, visuals, and suggested donation amounts, helping guide supporters while maintaining a respectful and professional experience.

Choosing the right donation kiosk for your nonprofit organization

Several factors can help determine the most appropriate solution:

Visitor volume and donor interaction points
Types of fundraising campaigns and programs
Typical donor profiles and giving patterns
Language options required for accessibility

Design and integration

The donation kiosk should integrate naturally into your organization’s environment, whether in an office, reception area, event space, or partner location. iChessed offers discreet and professional models, available as floor-standing, wall-mounted, or tabletop units.

This allows nonprofits to provide accessible donation points without disrupting their operations.

Support and maintenance

Our donation kiosk systems include ongoing technical support, software updates, and proactive hardware monitoring. This ensures reliable performance over time and reduces maintenance requirements.

Organizations can focus on their mission while maintaining a stable and dependable fundraising system.

Our Big Kitchen Los Angeles (OBKLA) is a kosher and inclusive community kitchen that unites volunteers around a shared mission: preparing and distributing meals for individuals and families in need. Beyond meal preparation, OBKLA fosters a sense of community, teaches valuable culinary and organizational skills, and encourages teamwork and social responsibility among its volunteers.

To support its ongoing programs, OBKLA has installed an iChessed donation kiosk on its premises. This interactive terminal enables visitors, volunteers, and supporters to contribute easily and securely, helping fund charitable workshops, educational programs, and other initiatives that benefit the wider community.

The kiosk’s placement ensures it is highly visible and accessible, making it simple for anyone to participate in supporting OBKLA’s mission. By combining modern technology with the organization’s hands-on, community-focused approach, the donation kiosk helps sustain vital programs, expand outreach, and ensure that OBKLA can continue feeding those in need while empowering volunteers and strengthening the community.
