Direct support for urgent needs

Social Impact Funds Powered by GoFundMe.org

GoFundMe is committed to caring for the needs we see on our platform every day: education equality, weather resilience, and access to life’s essentials.

We are proud to support these funds — and hope you will consider doing so, too. Donations to these social impact funds go directly to grants to individuals in need, and in some cases, organizations working to provide aid or promote critical social change. Grants are distributed by our strategic nonprofit partner, GoFundMe.org. GoFundMe.org is an independent and publicly-supported 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that leverages our technology, services, and other resources at no charge to carry out its charitable purpose.
