# Giving to Collectives

Collectives around the world are doing great work. But they need support to thrive.\
\
Using Open Collective, you can search for groups that share your ideals or interests and back them with a one-off or regular donation. You can even contribute directly to a Fiscal Host to support organizations working with many collectives at once.

Open Collective makes this process easy. You can contribute as an individual or as a company, and we even provide an annual report which you can download for tax purposes.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://documentation.opencollective.com/giving-to-collectives/giving-to-collectives.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
