Help with Searches
To make your searches at Charity Village® more effective, here are a few basic rules about how our search engine works. These tips apply only to our site-wide search engine. There are additional restrictions when searching for job openings, volunteer opportunities, and event listings.
Consecutive words in the search box are treated as a phrase. For example, keying in executive director will only return documents with the phrase "executive director" in them. It won't return documents with phrases like "the director will report to the executive committee."

To find multiple words in a document, use boolean operators such as AND, OR, NOT or NEAR. Examples:
