In 2016 someone came to my door asking for a donation to Change.org I graciously gave a One time donation of $22.00. It is now 2023 and I recently found out they have been charging me $22.00 EVERY month. I never agreed to pay monthly. I should have caught this sooner, but that does not excuse them stealing from me every month. When I tried to cancel, they did not even have me listed as "Monthly Contributor" and therefor did not even have a method for me cancel or modify. Per their web site,"If you do not see the "Manage contribution option, it means you were not signed up for a monthly contribution." (See the attached pictures) I never signed up to be a sustaining contributor, yet they did take money each and every month, gave me no option to cancel, and made it appear as if I was not contributing. Be wary of this organization.
Tip for consumers:
As an individual wanting to contribute to the world, I look for ways to make my voice heard on issues that matter to me. I think the idea of this type of organization could help fulfill that need, but lesson learned not to mistake trust in a cause to be a reason to trust that someone will release their hooks into your bank account once they have access.

Change.org should not be keeping all donations people mistakenly make on their site when people...
Change.org are scammers who steal your money under false pretenses and do nothing for your cause....
