HelloAsso · Association Emails by Cause

Export French associations from the public HelloAsso directory. Two jobs:

Job	Console	You get
Emails (CRM)	Collect emails = on	Public mailbox from the HelloAsso profile, then from the association website (homepage, contact, mentions légales). Plus name, city, phone, SIREN when published.
Directory only	Collect emails = off	Name, city, category, campaigns, HelloAsso URL. Cheaper. No mailbox.

Paste a HelloAsso search URL, or pick a cause and a city (All France = every city).

No login. No API key. No HelloAsso account.

Built for: outbound / SDR to associations · grant desks · CSR / local partners

Who is this for?

You are…	Typical goal	Suggested setup
Outbound / SDR to associations	CRM list with mailboxes	Collect emails on · Max 24 first
Grant / foundation desk	Nonprofits in one cause	Cause + Max 50 · emails on if you will write
CSR / corporate foundation	Local partners in a city	Cause + city · emails on
Market research / ops	Mix of causes nationwide	Any cause + All France · emails off

Typical fill rates (measured 2026-08-23):

Field	Directory only (50, Education + courses, all France)	Collect emails on — profile + website (20)
Name / city / postal / category / URL	~100%	~100%
Description	~98%	~100%
Website	—	~55%
Email	~0% (not on listing cards)	~20%
Phone	~0%	~0%
Instagram / Facebook / LinkedIn	—	~10% / ~5% / ~5%
RNA / SIREN	—	~0% (HelloAsso rarely publishes them)

In that 20-row sample, all 4 mailboxes came from the HelloAsso profile. The website crawl added none. Listing cards stay at ~0% email.

How emails are collected

Collect emails must be on. Then two sources, in order:

Source	What we read	emailSource
HelloAsso profile	Public association page: mailto: links + visible page text	helloasso-profile
Association website	Homepage, then contact / mentions légales, over HTTP	association-website

Also scan the association website (enrichFromWebsite) is on by default, but it only runs when Collect emails is on and the profile listed a site.

We open the public profile and parse what is already in the page. We do not click a “see email” / “voir l’email” button. If HelloAsso only reveals the address after that click, we can miss it.

How much does it cost?

Browser run (HelloAsso is a public web directory behind a bot check). Actor start is $0.00005 per GB (negligible). Totals below include that start.

Scenario (FREE)	Approx. total
24 without email	~$0.05
1,000 without email	~$2.00
1,000 with email	~$5.00

Event	FREE	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Association with email	$5.00 / 1k	$4.50	$4.00	$3.50
Association without email	$2.00 / 1k	$1.80	$1.60	$1.40

Rows with a public mailbox bill association-with-email. Rows without still bill association-without-email when Collect emails is on (you paid for the profile visit).

Default memory is 2048 MB. Timeout 6 hours (large France dumps).

How long for 33,000 associations?

HelloAsso sits behind a bot check, so listing still uses a browser. The Actor does not open 33,000 profile pages unless Collect emails is on.

Job	What it does	Ballpark
33k directory only (Collect emails off)	Listing pages in parallel (~4 tabs)	~45–90 min (not days)
33k with emails	One browser visit per association	~1–3 days — don’t. Export the directory first, then enrich a sample
1k with emails	Profiles + website scan	~1–3 hours

PPE (FREE): directory-only 33k ≈ $66; with email (if every row had a mailbox) ≈ $165, plus compute.

Is it legal to scrape HelloAsso?

This Actor only reads data HelloAsso and the association already publish without an account. Treat names, emails and phones as personal data: your use must comply with GDPR and your own purpose limitation.

FAQ

Why are emails empty? Collect emails is off by default. Listing cards are ~0% email. With Collect emails on, about 1 in 5 associations in a 20-row Education sample had a public mailbox — all four from the HelloAsso profile; the website crawl added none.

Do you click “voir l’email”? No. We open the public profile and parse mailto links and text already in the page. If HelloAsso hides the address behind that button, we can miss it.

Does the website scan replace Collect emails? No. It only runs when Collect emails is on (enrichFromWebsite is on by default in that case).

Why a browser? HelloAsso’s public directory sits behind a bot check. Association websites are fetched over plain HTTP.

How many associations per page? Typically about 12 cards. The Actor stops when it reaches Max associations.

Can I take one category for all of France? Yes. Set the cause (e.g. Education), city All France, Max 0 if you want every matching card (6-hour run cap).

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes. Use Apify Schedules for a weekly city or cause watch.
