    Hey everyone, We wanted to give you all an update. We’ve officially been approved for an apartment in a much safer area, and our move in date is set for May 11th. We can’t thank you enough. Your support has helped make this possible. We also want to be fully transparent. After getting the move in packet, the deposits ended up being lower than we originally expected. Because of that, we’re going to lower our overall fundraising goal to better reflect what we actually need. Our new goal will be $5,500 $2,500 for security deposits, application fees, pet deposits/fees, and first month’s rent $2,000 for moving supplies and a moving company $1,000 as a buffer for any unexpected move-out costs, fees, or taxes We still need help covering these upfront costs, but we want to be as honest and accurate as possible with everyone who’s supporting us.

    "Hello everyone, this is Danielle. I am posting this urgent update on behalf of Monther, who is currently in a tent in Gaza with limited internet. Monther wanted to share this with you directly: Monther says: 'This is my baby cousin. He is suffering from a serious illness, and his condition is deteriorating. We are desperate for medical help, but with the health system destroyed and us living in a fragile tent, getting him the specialized care he needs is nearly impossible. His tiny body is not strong enough to endure this war. Please help us get him the medical attention he needs before it's too late. Your donations will go towards his specialized care and medicines. Thank you for being our voice and our hope.'"

Frequently Asked Questions

A Location Community is an evergreen, place-based page on GoFundMe that brings together fundraising activity which originates in a specific city, region, or geography. It's designed to help people discover what members of their community are raising funds for - near or far - and see the collective impact of generosity raised.

Location Communities aggregate fundraisers connected to a specific place. Today, campaigns appear based on the organizer's location. This means you may see:

  • Fundraisers supporting someone in the same city
  • Campaigns benefiting someone in another state or country
  • National or global causes organized by someone locally

This reflects how giving and support actually works — people often care about things that happen everywhere, not only where they live. We are working to make sourcing more transparent so visitors understand why a fundraiser appears on a page.

Fundraisers currently appear based on where the organizer is located. Many people raise funds for loved ones outside their city, or for causes beyond their immediate geography. These are still real expressions of civic participation. To reduce confusion, we are evaluating ways to make this more evident to the users so the supporters of the Community understand how fundraisers are included.

The goal is transparency!

No. Location Communities are designed to reflect community activity — not editorial curation or endorsement by GoFundMe or local governments. These pages are a visibility layer. They show how residents are organizing and supporting one another.

Location Communities are built specifically for giving and impact. They provide:

  • Centralized discovery of local fundraisers
  • Ongoing activity updates
  • Aggregated impact metrics
  • Follow tools and notifications
  • A trusted donation infrastructure

Unlike social platforms, the focus is not conversation or algorithms designed to doomscrool or drive engagement for ad serving purposes. Communities are designed intentionally to direct people to the ongoing needs of their neighbors so that they can offer help or support by liking, sharing, or donating to a fundraiser.

No. These communities should not be used as hardship indexes. They show civic participation — moments of need and moments of generosity. The emphasis is on how residents show up for one another. They are meant to highlight resilience, action, and collective support.

Your fundraiser was added because it's connected to a shared cause or event —like a crisis, challenge, or location. Communities help bring related fundraisers together so supporters can better understand the bigger picture and find ways to help.

Being in a Community can help your fundraiser get more visibility. Supporters browsing the Community can discover your fundraiser alongside others connected to the same cause, see collective progress, and feel more confident donating as part of a trusted, organized effort. As part of helping you share your fundraiser more broadly, we may automatically cross-post certain updates you share that are relevant for the broader community.

No action was required on your part. Fundraisers are added automatically when they're clearly related to a specific cause.

Yes. If you don't want your fundraiser included, you can opt-out via the fundraiser manage page within your dashboard - simply toggle off the prompt for Allow my fundraiser to be found in search and discovery. Your fundraiser will still remain active and accessible on its own page.

Not at all. Your fundraiser stays fully yours—same goal, same donations, same updates. The Community is simply an additional way for supporters to discover and engage with your fundraiser.
