Quickstart

GiveReady requires no API key for read operations. You can search nonprofits, view profiles, and list causes right now. If you’re connecting an AI agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client): 
npx giveready-mcp
Or add to your MCP client config: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "giveready": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["giveready-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
Your agent now has access to search_nonprofits, get_nonprofit, and list_causes tools. Try it: Ask your agent “Find nonprofits working on mental health” or “Show me organizations focused on environmental conservation in the UK.”

​
Option 2: REST API

Option 3: Donate via x402

To initiate a donation, call the donate endpoint. The response includes payment instructions: 
# Step 1: Get payment instructions

# }

# Step 2: Sign and submit the USDC transaction
