Requesting a donation receipt

You can locate receipts within your GoFundMe account by following these steps:

  1. Log into your GoFundMe account
  2. Choose "Donations you've made" from the menu in the top right corner
  3. Your donations will be separated by one-off and recurring donations
  4. Choose the donation you'd like your receipt for, then choose "Print receipt"

If you don't have a GoFundMe account and don't want to create one, you can use the ‘Contact us’ button to get in touch with our team, and we can re-send the receipt to you.

Receipts from charity fundraisers

If you donated to a charity fundraiser, you should have received a tax-deductible receipt from PayPal Giving Fund. If you’re not sure if you donated to a charity fundraiser, you can visit the fundraiser and look for the tax-deductible tag under the fundraiser media: bfd8c485-f628-4a9d-830f-37f170e7864e

Only donations made to GoFundMe charity fundraisers are guaranteed to be tax-deductible in the US, the UK, Canada, Ireland, and Australia. If you donate to a certified charity fundraiser from a another country, you will still be emailed the tax-deductible receipt, but you'll need to check with your local tax authority to confirm if they are tax-deductible. 

If you’re confident you donated to a charity fundraiser and would like a copy of your tax-deductible receipt, please use the "Contact us" button to contact our team, and we can reach out to PayPal Giving Fund on your behalf. 

If you don't see the tax-deductible tag on the fundraiser you donated to, then it’s a personal fundraiser. In this case, the donation is likely not a tax-deductible charitable contribution; however, you should consult with a tax professional. Read more about taxes for charity donations in this article.
