Studies show that around 95% of people take part in some sort of charitable giving,[1] with donations ranging from money to physical goods to time.
Individuals account for more than 70% of total giving[1] — far more than any foundation or corporation!
Some of the most popular causes include education, human services, health, the arts, the environment, and animals.[2]
Regardless of your cause, and whether you’re creating your own non-profit organization or participating in a charitable event, choosing a great name can help bolster the community spirit and give more motivation to work hard for the cause.
Below, we have the list of name ideas for charity groups. We also provide a name generator and tips for creating your own charity name.

How to Create a Good Charity Team Name
Charity group names can be directly related to your fundraising effort or just more generally hopeful.
When choosing your team name or generating ideas other than those on our list, ask yourself the following questions:
- “What is my cause?” Your group name doesn’t necessarily need to directly reference the cause itself if you’re just a participant in a fundraising event. However, if you’re creating an organization, it’s crucial to quickly and clearly convey the purpose of your group.
- “How do I want my name to sound?” Do you want your name to sound very official and academic, or would you prefer something more casual and inspiring? The answer to this question might be obvious based on your reason for needing a name, but if you’re struggling to decide, try listing a few options with different tones to see which you like best.
- “What is my activity/event?” If you’re creating a walking group or similar for a one-time activity or event, your name will be much different than if you are creating a community organization from the ground up. Make sure your name is appropriate for your activity, and you can even get inspiration from the event, as seen in your list’s “Heart and Sole” (a walking team name).
Regardless of your answers to these questions, the name you choose should be positive, welcoming, and easy to understand.
If naming an organization or event, you’ll also want to consider the acronym, as people will be more likely to want to shorten your name (especially if it is more than a few words long).
