How it works
- At checkout, pick a local charity from the list.
- Canary donates 1% of your pre-tax sale to that charity — out of our pocket, not added to your total.
- Optional: round your total up to the next dollar to chip in more.
- At the end of each month we send the full balance to each charity (check, Venmo, Zelle, or their own donate page) and record the payout in the ledger below.
- Nothing is deducted for processing — 100% goes to the charity.
