This article explains everything you need to know to make changes to your campaign after you've created it.
How to edit your campaign
To edit your campaign, sign in to your account and click on the three vertical lines at the top of your screen. Choose "My campaigns". Select which campaign you’d like to view and click on "Manage".
Choose the green "Edit" button under your campaign title. On your mobile device, simply scroll down and select "Edit".
From there, you can update the public information shown on the campaign as well as edit the campaign settings by selecting the "+ Additional options" button. Don't forget to save your changes before moving on!
For beneficiaries or team members who did not create the campaign, you’ll need to contact the campaign organiser to request that they make changes to the campaign on your behalf. If you contact GoFundMe for assistance with edits to your campaign, we will still need the campaign organiser’s permission before we can take action.
From the "Edit" button, you can change:
- Campaign story
- Goal amount
- Campaign title
- Category
- Location
- Main image of the campaign
Under the "+ Additional Options" button on the "Edit" page, you can change:
- Campaign link
- Add a team
- Turn comments on/off
- Turn donations on/off
- Deactivate your GoFundMe
A note on editing your goal amount
If you reach your campaign goal, your campaign will still continue to accept donations. If you don’t reach your goal, you can still keep your funds.
If you decide to increase your goal amount, we recommend that you post a campaign update to explain why you made that change and how the additional donations will be used.
