Create Your Account
Go to the GiveSendGo Sign Up page and complete the user account creation flow to start a campaign, track donations, and connect with others. Ensure all the information you've entered is accurate and save your profile.
Set Core Campaign Settings
Recipient Country
Make sure the recipient’s country is on our supported countries list. Choosing the wrong country will mean you will not be able to use the campaign. You can create a new campaign using the correct country, however. View our full list of supported countries, then select where the funds will be received.
If the recipient’s country is not supported, you may designate a trusted individual in a supported country to receive the funds on their behalf and transfer them outside of GiveSendGo.
Campaign Goal
Choose your fundraising goal. You can display it on your campaign page as a total goal, a monthly goal, or keep it hidden entirely.

Personalize Your Campaign
Set Your Title and URL

Select a Category
Choose the category that best fits your campaign. Don’t stress too much about getting it perfect—just pick the one that feels the closest match. It won’t affect your campaign’s visibility or success, and you can always update it later if needed.

Tell Your Story
Your story is the heart of your campaign. Share why you’re raising funds, who it will help, and how the donations will make a meaningful difference. Be clear, honest, and specific so people understand the impact of their support.
Add a compelling photo or video to bring your story to life. You won't be able to publish your campaign unless you do. This media will appear at the top of your campaign page and is the first thing visitors will see.
You can upload additional images later from your account. Videos must be added by pasting a link—we don’t currently support direct video uploads.
