Donate

The donations platform we’ve been using, Kindful, is now part of Bloomerang. The new page for making online donations, Everyday Zen Giving, and for accessing your donor account runs on Bloomerang. You’ll see “Powered by Bloomerang” at the bottom of the form and account pages, and when logging into your account.

On our previous donations site, we had separate pages for different kinds of events. We’ve streamlined things in moving to the new site. Every donation supports Norman’s teaching and the work of Everyday Zen, so we’re providing a single form for your gifts.

No, you don’t need an account to make a donation. But if you’d like to save time when making a future donation, or to see or manage your donations, click “Add a password to save your details and history” when you make a donation to create an account.

If you had an account on Kindful, you can still access it, but will need to create a new account on Bloomerang for current donations. See below, under I had an account on Kindful. What happened to it?, for more information.

Yes, please try to use the exact same name and email when you make a donation. Bloomerang matches your donations by your first and last name. If you use “Bob” one time and “Robert” the next, your donations may be recorded as two different people. If you think this may have happened, email donations@everydayzen.org and we’ll sort it out.

This adds a small amount to your donation to cover card processing fees, so all of your donation reaches Everyday Zen. It’s optional; uncheck the box if you prefer.

Yes. Scroll up to the top section of this page for details, under the heading “Donating by Check.”

Yes. Choose “Corporate Gift” when you enter your details. If you need a receipt that includes the name of your organization, email donations@everydayzen.org.

It should, yes. If anything doesn’t work, please email donations@everydayzen.org.

To see donations you made previously, through Kindful, go to our Kindful page at Bloomerang and sign in with your Kindful login information (email and password). You’ll also find your previous year’s tax summaries.

To view and manage your donations from now on, you’ll need to create a new account on Bloomerang. Click on “Add a password to save your details and history” the next time you make a donation. Your new account will show donations made through the new Everyday Zen Giving page.

Click “Sign In” at the top of the giving page, or click “Go to my account” after making a donation.

You can also go directly to the Bloomerang donor login (note that this page doesn’t mention Everyday Zen). Your account shows donations, saved payment methods, any monthly gifts you set up on our new Everyday Zen Giving page, and your account details.

Click “Sign In” at the top of our giving page and update your email under My Account. Please also let us know at donations@everydayzen.org, so we can update our records.

Your donor account is now managed by Bloomerang and their account pages have a different look and feel from Kindful’s. Also, in some places, they may show Bloomerang’s or Qgiv’s name rather than our name or logo.

Your account at Bloomerang shows only donations made through our Everyday Zen Giving page at Bloomerang. Rest assured, donations made through Kindful, our earlier donations platform, are still in our system.

After the end of the year, we’ll email you a year-end statement covering all your 2026 donations. If you need a report that lists them sooner, email donations@everydayzen.org.

Bloomerang Fundraising was formerly called Qgiv. Receipts for donations to Everyday Zen currently come from receipts@qgiv.net, and the web addresses for our giving page and your account include “qgiv” or “bloomerang.” If you’re unsure whether a message is from us, email donations@everydayzen.org.

Recurring gifts set up through Kindful are still processing but unfortunately are not displayed in the new account pages. See below for more details about this.

For monthly gifts set up through Everyday Zen Giving, receipts for each transaction include a link to your recurring donations summary. That page shows your next gift date and your giving history, and has a link to cancel. If you have an account, you can also sign in and use the Recurring Gifts tab.

Monthly gifts set up through our previous platform (Kindful) continue as before, so you don’t need to do anything. But unfortunately, they don’t appear in your new Bloomerang account, so you can’t change or cancel them yourself. This applies whether you give by credit/debit card or through PayPal.

To manage monthly donations yourself, set up a new recurring gift on Everyday Zen Giving and let us know, and we’ll cancel your old monthly gift so you aren’t charged twice. That way, you’ll be able to view and manage your recurring donation going forward. You can also ask us to change or cancel the recurring gift for you; email donations@everydayzen.org.

We apologize for the inconvenience. It’s not how we’d design things.

Some browsers display a pop-up saying, “This site doesn’t support a secure connection” when you click the link in your monthly gift receipt. This is because the link passes through a tracking address before going to your summary page. The summary page itself is secure, so it’s safe to continue.

If you prefer, click the green button above labeled “Make a Donation,” then click “Sign In” at the top right of the giving form to view your donation summary.

Old donation links for us still work, by sending you to our Kindful page at Bloomerang, set up for the transition to the new platform. Eventually, this page will be turned off. To be sure you’re giving through the current page, use a “Donate” button on our website and update your bookmarks.
