Gofundme - Free Crowdfunding for Noble Causes

Gofundme - Free Crowdfunding for Noble Causes

By Juan Molina | Juan Molina | 21 Nov 2019


Life is always contradictory and ironic, she surprises us, makes us happy and sad. Many times by chance we can meet someone who will change us forever, other times we strive day by day to find that person and we never succeed.   Walking through life can be compared to walking through a maze. You never know what you will find around the corner, sometimes too, we must go back and rectify the path.

Among these gait and life events I had the opportunity to learn about the existence of a platform whose concept I found very interesting.

Gofundme is a free platform for Crowdfunding, which integrates the power of the Internet and social networks to cross borders so that people can raise funds to meet or support truly noble causes, whether personal or beneficial.

"We have built our reputation thanks to our commitment to serve and protect our community of campaign organizers and donors, and we continue to gain that trust every day. The GoFundMe community has more than 50 million people who have raised more than five billion dollars. "

Developing a crowdfunding campaign in Goundme will allow raising funds to cover economic needs related to:

  • Health: With a campaign you will get immediate help to pay medical bills.
  • In memorian: With a campaign you will get immediate help to pay the costs of a funeral.
  • Emergency: Get help to deal with disasters.
  • NGO: The quick and easy way to raise money for the NGOs that matter to you.
  • Education: Get help paying educational expenses.
  • Others.

CONS

We can immediately get an idea of ​​the potential of this platform. But we should also imagine that this can be done to cover up fraudulent campaigns.

As for the security of the campaigns, I could not find information on how Gofundme evaluates the truth of the cases. This platform only guarantees the management of the funds raised, guaranteeing the crowdfunding organizer that they will receive the funds and they will remain in a protected place until the moment they decide to request a withdrawal of funds by electronic bank transfer.

Another limiting factor that I could find is that the platform is not configured to accept donations in cryptocurrencies. This seemed incredible to me, I couldn't believe it!

As I told you at the beginning of this post, it was for a case of the ironies of life that I learned about the existence of this platform.

It turns out that a beloved uncle of mine, my mother's brother currently has an active fundraising campaign to cover the costs of his chemotherapy treatment to fight stomach cancer that was recently diagnosed.

 

He´s Dr. Amador Avila.

Knows Amador Avila´s Case

 

My uncle is a Gynecologist and Obstetrician with extensive experience, lives in Venezuela. He has been awarded several times for his contributions to science and the improvement of obstetric processes in my country.

Venezuela has the worst economy in the world. The quality of life of Venezuelans is so deteriorated that the state is not able to guarantee the right to health.

It is inconceivable that a medical doctor with a high level of preparation, who has given his whole life to save others, today cannot cover medical expenses to save his own life.

This is a sample of the things that happen in my country.
