I don’t want to receive Email Alerts

To unsubscribe from our email alerts, please do the following:

1. Log in to your account by visiting www.idealist.org and entering your email and password. If you do not remember your password, you can have it sent to you.
   
   
   Please note: If you have not logged in to your Idealist account recently, you will be asked to read and agree to the Idealist principles and verify your old account information (you will not be asked to create a new account). Once you have done this, click on the "sign up" button and you will be taken to your Control Panel where you can manage your email alerts.




2. Click on the "Email Alerts” tab from your Control Panel.
3. Click on the “turn off” link to stop receiving email alerts.

Once you have unsubscribed from your email alerts, you will see a “turn on” link.


I don’t want to receive institutional Idealist emails

Institutional emails may be sent to individuals registered for membership with Idealist or to contact person of an organization, consultant, or Idealist Group listed on our site. If you received an institutional email because you have an individual account, please contact us to request that you be removed from our mailing list.



If you received an institutional email because you are the primary contact for a Group (please note that “Group” is an umbrella term for Nonprofit Organizations, Consultants, and Idealist Groups, the three types of organizational accounts currently found on our site) listed on Idealist, please note that we cannot simply remove your email address (or the organization) from our database. However, we can change the contact information that we have on file so that related emails are no longer sent to you. If you know of a different email address for the Group (i.e. info@groupname.org), please contact us with the name of your Group, and preferred contact name and email.
