Overflow is a technology company.
Overflow delivers a fintech platform that modernizes charitable giving for organizations. It enables non-profits to seamlessly accept diverse donations, including stock, cryptocurrency, and digital payments, through a single integrated system. This technology simplifies complex non-cash contributions, creating an efficient, accessible fundraising pathway for institutions and their donors.
Vance Roush founded Overflow in November 2019, driven by the belief that giving should be effortless. He recognized the significant friction in traditional donation methods and the untapped potential of non-cash assets for philanthropy. Roush's objective was to build a platform systematically eliminating these barriers, fostering widespread generosity.
Overflow primarily serves ministries and non-profit organizations seeking to expand fundraising through modern digital channels. The platform broadens access to generosity by making the donation process remarkably straightforward. Its vision is to cultivate a future where charitable contributions are universally simple and easily attainable.

Overflow is a Silicon Valley-based fintech company that provides an online platform enabling nonprofits, churches, and charities to accept donations of publicly-traded stocks, cryptocurrencies, and other non-cash assets, alongside traditional cash giving. It serves faith-based organizations, nonprofits, and donors by automating stock transfers, integrating with existing CRMs, and offering tools like customizable "Tap" products for seamless, frictionless giving, which results in average donations 47x higher than standard ACH/credit card methods and 2.5x the national average.[1][2][5] Backed by investors like Salesforce Ventures, R7, Uncork, and Wesleyan Investment Foundation, Overflow has raised $20M in Series B funding and employs around 54-96 people, focusing on expanding generosity through innovative financial solutions amid rising stock ownership among millennials and tech workers.[2][3][4]
The platform solves the problem of limited donation access to cash by unlocking larger funding pools in stock portfolios, driving higher generosity—e.g., helping churches like HighPoint pay off $1.4M in debt and Kalos unlock $200K+ in stock gifts—while providing migration support, advanced reporting, and 109% increases in recurring giving value post-migration.[3][5]
Overflow App Inc. was founded in November 2019 by Vance Roush, a venture capitalist inspired by the principle from Proverbs 11:24 that "the world of the generous gets larger and larger," aiming to inspire global giving starting with stock-based donations.[2] Key founding team members include Kyle Woumn (VP of Product) and Kim Roush (General Manager), with the company headquartered in Palo Alto/San Jose, California.[1][4]
The idea emerged from trends like democratized stock access via apps like Robinhood, millennials shifting wealth to equities, and tech compensation in stock, creating untapped donation potential separate from cash-constrained budgets. Early traction built on this, with Overflow positioning itself as a VC-backed fintech serving nonprofits, expanding from stocks to crypto and private equity, and gaining backing from R7 and Salesforce Ventures Impact Fund.[2] Pivotal moments include a $20M Series B in 2024 led by Wesleyan Investment Foundation, fueling growth into a comprehensive giving platform for faith spaces.[3]
Overflow rides the fintech democratization wave, capitalizing on Robinhood-era stock access, equity-heavy tech compensation, and millennial wealth shifts toward non-cash assets, timed perfectly as capital gains tax policies (e.g., Biden-era discussions) encourage stock gifting over cash.[2] Market forces like rising nonprofit funding gaps and "all-in-one" platform pitfalls (confusing contracts, poor support) favor Overflow's specialized, uncomplicated approach, influencing the ecosystem by unlocking billions in untapped stock donations for equity-driven causes, especially faith-based ones.[2][5]
It amplifies Silicon Valley's innovation for social good, bridging fintech with philanthropy—starting in churches but expanding globally—while competitors lag in non-cash handling, positioning Overflow as a tipping-point player in a generosity tech movement.[3][6]
Overflow is poised to dominate faith-space fintech, evolving from stock donations to a full-suite platform across all asset classes, with trends like crypto adoption, AI-driven personalization, and global wealth transfers shaping hyper-growth. Expect deeper CRM embeddings, international expansion, and 2-3x donation multipliers as stock ownership surges.[2][5][6]
Its influence will grow by redefining generosity as frictionless and abundant, turning Overflow from a donation tool into the backbone of modern giving—proving that inspiring the world to give starts with unlocking what's already theirs.[2][6]
Overflow has raised $30.0M across 2 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $20.0M Series B in February 2024.
