About Us

CharityStars is an online platform that sits at the intersection of charity, influencers, and brands.

Through Auctions and Sweepstakes, our users have the chance to buy or win unique items or unforgettable experiences, with a percentage of proceeds always going to support good causes.

Our Mission

Provide unique items and once-in-a-lifetime experiences that support charity.

Our goal is to make giving fun and rewarding.

Winners get the chance to live a dream, celebrities can support causes they’re passionate about, and charities spend less time fundraising and more time creating positive change.

We’ve put together a passionate team that cares about social impact, technology and challenging the status quo of fundraising.

We are a community, a force for good and one destination for all.

Vision

Unite people, technology and causes to ignite positive change.
