Charity Register FAQ’s
Why must my national organization pay the out-of-market fee when we have a local office and/or hold an event in Palm Beach County?
Although your organization has a local presence, you must pay the out-of-market fee if the funds raised by your event leave Palm Beach County.
Can I pay for the listing by check?
We strongly discourage paying by check, but if it is your only viable payment method, please contact Ana Coronel at acoronel@palmbeachmedia.com to arrange.
I’m having a problem with the website, and I can’t submit my event. What do I do?
Please contact Johanna Perez at jperez@palmbeachmedia.com with any issues regarding the submission form on our website.
My credit card won’t go through. What’s wrong?
Please contact Ana Coronel with any issues regarding payment.
My organization is still confirming the date and/or location of our event. Can I still submit the event?
No, you must have confirmed the event’s name, date, and location before submitting.
My organization is still confirming the event’s theme/guest speaker/chairs. Can I still submit the event?
Yes, as long you can confirm this information with the editor, Kristen Desmond LeFevre, by the July 26 deadline. Please make a note in the appropriate field that this information is TBD.
The photo for my listing isn’t ready. Can I still submit the event?

Will my photo work?
Please see our guidelines for photos here Listing Photo Specs. You may not submit logos or graphics of any kind.
I have a lot of information/sponsors/chairs to mention in my listing. Can you fit all of this?
We do our best to accommodate all of the information provided; however, the listing must fit into the allotted 1/3-page size. If the copy runs over, we will have to shorten it.
I already submitted my listing, but I have a change, an update, or additional information I need to have added in. How do I update it?
Please send any changes, updates, or additional information that you need added to your listing to the editor, Kristen Desmond LeFevre, by the July 26 deadline. After the deadline passes, we cannot promise that we will be able to fit any changes that significantly alter the length of the listing.
How will I know that my listing has been accepted?
You will receive a confirmation email after submitting your event. In the rare case that PBMG is forced to cut your listing, you will be notified. Otherwise, a proof of your listing will be available to review in early September.
How long do I have to proof my organization’s listing?
Upon receiving your proof, you will have 48 hours to either approve or amend the listing.
Why was this change made in the copy that I submitted for my listing?
