Tips from our team
How to get more donations
- Share clear photos of the damage and explain exactly what the money will repair or replace.
- Organisations: say how many families you will help and how.
- Post updates with photos as the rebuilding happens – it builds trust and brings more support.
Can I raise money for my whole community?
Yes. Community groups, churches and charities often run relief campaigns. Explain who will benefit and how funds will be used.
Can I withdraw before the campaign ends?
Yes, once your identity is verified you can request withdrawals while the campaign is still running.
How much does it cost?
Starting is free. We take 10% of what you raise, which covers card processing and running the platform – you keep 90%.
How do I receive the money?
Withdraw to a bank account (we send bank transfers through Wise) or to PayPal, from your dashboard, once your identity is verified.
