The Woodcutter short film.

Without gofundme our short film ‘The Woodcutter’ could not have gone into production. The platform was intuitive and easy to navigate. Thanks gofundme

Good resource

It has been a great help; however, it was a small nightmare, to update the financial bank information. They should have told me that it’s difficult to change on the app, and the subcontract company that takes the financial information has an issue with automated service. So use the manual update. option only..

Great vehicle

Has facilitated much of the community service I perform! We are a community

Allowed me to plead for help my fund my long, slow journey of neurologic recovery from the 2022 dama

This was of key importance in my recovery from post a post-procedural strokes when insurance companies faltered like my disability insurance did, there’s not much anyone can do, except to plead for help from friends and family to get through it. I thank God for GoFundMe!

App sucks

So many glitches in the app. It’s practically unusable

Tips

The 17% tip is absolutely ridiculous especially since 10% is already taken out. I will look for another platform to help those in need next time.

Shaunta

I was raising money for my daughter’s funeral and I can’t seem to touch a dime of it !!!!! What in the world … Than y’all took y’all fees and got the money but i can’t touch this money to finish getting my child’s stuff for her funeral!!!!!

Messy

App is messy af

My dog’s surgeries

This really saved me

GoFundMe Review

I am so thankful that this application exists. It is very easy to set up and receive the funds. I would recommend it to everyone.

Tips?

Some high level BS for your company to be taking 3% from me and then asking for 17% “tip” from the people kind enough to donate to me.

Never worked

It never worked when I really needed it for financial help when I was going through financial crisis when I really needed my bills paid and I really needed food and now they’re having login issues. I try to login it says error. Please try again or contact our customer service team.

Could be better

Great app but a little clunky. You cannot filter donations to most recent showing. Instead you have to scroll to the bottom. Needs a bit of tweaking please. 🙏

Ayuda para tramiento

Gracias a ustedes espero lograr la meta muy fácil de usar y en verdad muy bueno para recaudar chavos para en tratamiento.

Helped my dog

Helped me raise money to get her seen by the vet for cancer

Grateful

Thank you for sharing this information, help us to much! God bless you!🙏🏽🤍

TOTAL GARBAGE APP NOW!

They ruined this app. The new interface buries the organizer dashboard and traps you in endless login loops just to force you to look at other campaigns. I can’t even send a simple thank-you to my donors without the app freezing or throwing "page not found" errors. Greed over usability

Transfer in pause for 3 weeks

No answers, terrible communication

When you need help

Scream and GofundMe will be there
