GoFundMe Pages Created for Nonprofits without Permission

In case you have not heard, GoFundMe recently created donation pages for approximately 1.4 million U.S. nonprofits – including many in Pennsylvania – without asking for permission. 

These pages may look legitimate to potential donors, but nonprofit organizations did not authorize them and, in many cases, are not managing them. That means your supporters could be donating through a third-party platform without your knowledge or consent. 

We want to make sure PANO’s members and beyond are informed and empowered. Here’s what you need to know: 

• We recommend you find your page and remove it.

• Get the full story in our blog post. 

• Check out this helpful resource from Heller Consulting. 

 

If you have questions, let us know. PANO is here to support you.
