Fundraiser is a community to raise funds for people in need. Requests with more proof and description of the situation are more successful than requests without a backstory or information.
Asking for money for yourself is not allowed. However, if you are part of a group that is officially fundraising for a purpose, such as a school band trip or a cancer walk, then that is allowed because it doesn't benefit yourself alone.
A community for fundraising. This may include groups, events, activities, and organizations that are interested in any type of fund-raising. Please do not submit personal requests for cash, such as stories about not making rent. This subreddit is focused on group efforts rather than self-interested fundraising.

20% of all sales from my Etsy shop's disco ball painting section here will be donated to LA Regional Foodbank. Furthermore, my company will double match (so more like 60% of art print cost gets donated). My instagram sna_sketches has the post showing that I'm donating from now until Feb 28th. Thanks for supporting!
if youve watched luccas story on netflix youll understand how exciting this protocol is for parents like myself with disabled children and need a bit of hope for their future!! its not covered by insurance and costs $60,000 but can mean the difference between living to 60 years old with moderate impairment and living to 7 years old with severe impairment which for kiddos with LGS like my son is the average :(. Please read my story in my go fund me page and thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hi, I started this fundraiser, Urgent Help for Andrea's Trip Back Home, on GoFundMe and it would mean a lot to me if you’d be able to share or donate to it. https://gofund.me/45708dd8
Hello,
My name is Adam and my story is not different, I am sure, from others. Unfortunately, my life the past 3-4 years has been tough as my wife was diagnosed with Paraganglioma cancer, which sadly is long-term terminal as there is no cure. Our years have been filled with surgeries at Northwestern and now Mayo Clinic in Rochester. I have gone out of my way to try and avoid asking personally from others for help, but I figure it can't hurt to ask for help, putting my pride to the side. Our bills are higher as we have two children and adding on medical expenses makes it tough. Anything helps as we struggle financially and this adds to the already ongoing stress of my wife's diagnosis. I greatly appreciate any help. Thank you and God Bless.

So, l've got an job in Netherlands as an order picker 4 weeks before holiday season, Christmas, New Year etc. I was working there without causing or attracting any problems, housing was fine, everything seemed fine. As I was struggling financially l've lend a little bit money from people I know just to go trough till my first wages, well first week I came I didn't work at all, so agency counted my rent, bicycle even tho I never seen it 9), everything was going to the minus. Second week l've finally got an job to do. It was good and I was doing good but sadly they didn't gave me enough hours, I was working like 5 hours at most, I was thinking it's fine at least I have roof over my head and most importantly work, well my second wage was terrible because of the minus from previous week and another charge from past week so l've got into more depth, well third week I was excited and positive because I was thinking it's just up from here. Well nothing changed, I barely got some hours but at least I finally got some money, not a lot but it was something and I was thinking finally this week I will get paid. But just before Christmas they kicked me out of work. They said that there's not a lot of work and blah blah blah . I've tried to get another work ASAP but without chance. I can let myself work only in agency provided housing because I do not have finances to look for a room and literally have no place to go to. So trough holiday season l've got myself cheapest hostels I could possibly find. It was in Berlin and mostly like 10e per night. Well I was trying to get myself any kind of work desperately. But it was just wrong time for that. I even asked hotel stuff or they have some work but without luck. So I was actively searching for a job but l didn't got anything trough that time. I've finally got an job as an helper on a building site in Germany trough Lithuanian agency, l've had an laptop and Switch but sold them just to have enough money till I'll get paid. Well I was working there for a few weeks till I asked for advance payment (they told me you can do that after working 2 weeks) but lady started to tell me a lot of reasons why they can't pay me atm. I realised that they will try to trick me on money upon looking deeper about that agency online. So my money got stolen. l've managed to get back to Netherlands with free rides (I'm sorry I just can't afford tickets), as l've got into this place, as terrible as housing and reviews is I think I need to move away from here and look for alternatives because I'm sitting around a lot of drunk, drugged and aggressive people around me and didn't heard nor from agency nor from coordinators for almost a week. But I really have nowhere to go to and absolutely nothing to eat. My question is, could any kind of kind soul give me a little bit of money? It doesn't matter how much, I would be more than grateful even for 50c donations. Thank you for even giving me a chance reading this post. Blessings. Emotional support also appreciated
Hi Friends,
We are struggling to save 2 year baby Chutki. She has 80% water in her brain. She needs all your attention and help for the treatment..please do support the little life.
so my mom retires in just over a month from a very toxic job, yay!! we are booked on an alaskan cruise... all she wanted for her retirement. i want to do a gofundme so family and friends can donate instead of give gifts. but what should i set the goal at? our aquaintences are not rolling in dough, but the room alone is about $1900. should I set it at 1000 and hope it goes above and beyond, or set it higher? dont want to make people feel like they have to donate a lot and feel bad. thoughts? thanks!
I've not done something like this before, but a friend suggested I might find help here, so I'm going to try. My family has been given an eviction notice and we need to gather $7,000 by Friday to forestall it, or as much as we can to get a new apartment.
We've tried government aid to no avail. There are no charities or shelters in our area. We have no friends or family to turn to. We wouldn't be asking if we had another option. If you can, please help, even if it's only a few dollars. If you can't, I understand, but please share the fundraiser around so that it can get more exposure to potential donors.
Thank you. My family and I appreciate it more than you can know.

It costs you nothing and helps me a tad bit. 🙏

Hey there! My friend has a life threatening connective tissue disorder is at risk of losing her housing because of the impact this disability and related medical debt has had on her. Her family is dangerous and she cannot rely on them for help. She is a writer doing important work related to child sexual abuse and she is a passionate disability advocate. She brings so much light to her community and I want to rally support for her in return.

If you have the means, please consider contributing and pass this along to your community. A good amount has been raised in recent months but her need has gotten urgent now. Thank you so much.
Hi everyone,
I never thought I’d be in a position where I’d need to ask for help, but life doesn’t always go as planned. My wife and I are working hard to secure a place to call home—somewhere we can finally have stability and peace of mind. Unfortunately, with rising costs and financial setbacks, reaching this goal has been much harder than we expected.
That’s why I’m reaching out today. Every bit of support, no matter how small, brings us closer to turning this dream into reality. If you’re able to donate, we would be beyond grateful. And if you can’t, simply sharing our story would mean the world to us.
For personal reasons, I’ve chosen to stay anonymous on WhyDonate, but I completely understand that trust is important. If you’d like more details or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at helpmikehome@gmail.com. I’m happy to provide more personal information to anyone who asks.
Here’s our fundraiser link: https://whydonate.com/en/fundraising/help-me-with-my-home
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read, share, or support in any way you can. Your kindness truly gives us hope.

John has always been a fighter. Growing up in a small town, he faced financial hardships that made higher education feel like a distant dream. Despite the challenges, he never let his circumstances define him. He worked tirelessly through high school—balancing part-time jobs, excelling in academics, and volunteering in his community. His dedication paid off when he was accepted into his dream university to study Computer Science.
However, tuition, books, and living expenses have become an overwhelming burden. John’s family has done everything they can to support him, but financial struggles, medical bills, and everyday expenses have made it nearly impossible to cover the costs of his education.
John refuses to give up. He’s applying for scholarships, working extra hours, and cutting back wherever possible, but it’s still insufficient. That’s why he’s reaching out for help. Every donation, big or small, brings him one step closer to achieving his dream and making a difference in the world.
By contributing to John's college fund, you’re not just helping him afford tuition—you’re investing in a determined, passionate student who will pay it forward in the future.
Thank you for believing in him and for being a part of his journey.
Hey guys! I am raising money for The Mind Charity in the UK for mental health.
Any help would be really appreciated:)
Hi everyone,
I hope you're all doing well. I’m reaching out with a sincere request, hoping to find someone who might be able to help.
I’m a self-taught web developer and a final-year BCA student with a strong passion for technology. Over the years, I’ve honed my skills in web development, design, and programming despite facing significant financial struggles. Unfortunately, I do not have family support and cannot afford a decent laptop to continue learning and working on projects that could shape my future.
I’ve been making do with an 11 year old laptop that barely holds a charge for 5 minutes and no working keypad, making it extremely difficult to work efficiently. With an internship coming up and a final-year project to complete, I desperately need a functional laptop to continue learning, coding, and growing in my field.
If anyone has an unused laptop they are willing to donate, or if you know of any organizations or individuals who help students like me, I would be immensely grateful. I’m not asking for a high-end device—just something that can handle basic web development and programming.
I’d be happy to showcase my work and skills to demonstrate my dedication. Any guidance, leads, or support would mean the world to me.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate any help, even if it’s just sharing this post.
Much love and gratitude, Nihal
Okay let me explain I'm 20 years and a single mom I don't have shit to my name and it's getting really hard to take care and provide for my 5 month old baby, I love him so much and I don't want him to have to deal with any of the same things I had to deal with growing up I just want what's best for him and I really don't think I fit that description I grew up without shit and drug addict parents I was taken away and put into foster care at the age of 13 and for whatever reason I kept running back to my mother by the time I was 18 I was out on my ass homeless because I was no longer considered a minor I got on my feet and was pretty stable at 19 had my own truck I was working construction and everything was going good I worked construction until I was 7 months pregnant and then my truck blew up leaving me without a vehicle currently I'm living in a shed (it's not what you're thinking it has hardwood floors and ac) with a five month old baby no transportation no income no way to get to work as I live 10 miles from the nearest place I possibly could work and even if I could I have no one to watch him while I'm there not trying to make excuses just being realistic things are a lot harder to figure out with a baby and I just can't seem to get on my feet I have everything he needs as of right now formula, diapers exc.. but I can't promise I'll have them later on down the road so as tears stream down my face wanting my son to have a better life than I can give him I really do feel like this is the only choice I have being completely by myself providing for him seems impossible.i just want what's best for him I love him so much.
This is my last option if you can help me I would really appreciate it
