Every year that the card is kept, half of the annual fee will be donated to the McGrath Foundation.
It's really simple. The McGrath Foundation credit card offers the best interest rate around for both purchases and cash advances, plus $20 of your $40 annual fee goes to the McGrath Foundation, so you can feel good about paying it. The only downside is that there are no extra benefits like rewards points.

When I applied I was contacted very quickly and they were very polite, easy going and knowledgeable. Everything was explained simply but comprehensively. I was sent all the forms via email and others were easily downloaded. Everything was processed quickly and I got follow up calls to give me progress reports and to make sure I understood what was happening, which was something I really wasn't expecting to happen. Even when I got the card I got follow up calls to make sure I was comfortable with everything and happy with the service and other emails with updates. With that kind of service who wouldn't be happy. All seemed to be totally transparent. This is THE BEST service I have ever had from a financial service.

I love the low interest rate and supporting breast cancer as I have a family friend who has been through this. I have never had any problems with this card and I have recommended this product to many friends.

8.99% rate and half the annual fee goes to the McGrath foundation. I even don't mind that the card is pink. It is great
