How to Report a Fundraiser on GiveSendGo

If you've come across a fundraiser you believe breaks our rules, you can report it to our team for review. Here's how to report a fundraiser and what happens next.

How to Report a Fundraiser

To report a fundraiser, Contact Us and include:

  1. The link to the fundraiser you're reporting
  2. A short description of your specific concern

That's all we need to start a review. The more specific you can be about what's wrong, the better our team can look into it.

What You Can Report

Report any fundraiser you believe violates our Terms of Service. Common reasons to report a fundraiser include:

  • It promotes or glorifies violence
  • It raises money for illegal activity
  • It appears to be a scam, spreads false information, or is fraudulent
  • It impersonates someone else or misleads givers

If something feels wrong but doesn't fit neatly into one of these, report it anyway and explain your concern. Our team reviews every report.

What Happens After You Report

Every report is reviewed against our Terms of Service. If a fundraiser is found to be out of compliance, we take appropriate action, which can include placing it on hold or removing it.

We review reports carefully and don't act on outrage or popularity alone. Because of that, we can't share the outcome of a review or give a specific timeline. What we can promise is that every report is taken seriously and looked at by a real person.
