Request your nonprofit to be listed on a Community
When a crisis or community need arises, Communities serve as a central destination — connecting donors, supporters, and media with verified fundraisers and local organizations responding on the ground. If your nonprofit is actively serving an affected community, you may be eligible to be featured on the relevant Community page.
This article explains who can apply, what's involved, and how to get started.
Who is eligible
To be considered for a listing, your organization must meet the following criteria:
- Be a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit in good standing in all relevant jurisdictions
- Be actively providing services or resources related to the community need or crisis event
- Have a verified GoFundMe nonprofit page
What being listed includes
Once your organization has been reviewed and added to a Community page, it will include:
- Your organization's name, logo, and a brief description
- A link to your GoFundMe nonprofit page
- Visibility alongside other verified organizations
GoFundMe reviews listings on an ongoing basis and may update or remove them as community needs change.
Please note: Communities are public and may be viewed by donors, supporters, media outlets, and the general public. From time to time, press outlets may feature Communities or participating nonprofits in news coverage and may contact organizations directly for interviews, comments, or additional information related to their involvement.
