Purpose of Organization Profiles
MissionBox allows users to share how they support the nonprofit organizations that are important to them. In order for users to identify an organization connection, the organization must have a profile on MissionBox, and the MissionBox community grows organically by users adding new organizations in order to tell their story.
Creating an Organization Profile
Step 1. Open the Sections menu by clicking the Sections button at the top left.

Step 2. Under Organization Profiles, click +Add Organization

Step 3. Enter the Organization Name.

As you start typing, the site will suggest possible matches based on existing organization profiles on MissionBox and Google Maps™ information.

- Name|Location: Organization is already on MissionBox.
- Name|Location...new: Organization is not on MissionBox, and Google Maps™ has place information for it that will automatically be added to the profile.
- Name...new: Organization is not on MissionBox, and Google Maps™ cannot locate it using the name provided.
Step 4. Click on the matching organization name in the list of suggestions or click the Next button to create a new organization with the exact name that you typed in.

Step 5. When the expanded New Organization window opens, enter the following information, which is required:
- Organization Type (nonprofit, charity, trust, etc.)
