What is Gofundme Charity?

No matter what type of fundraiser you decide to hold, Gofundme Charity (the fundraising tool used by the Amputee Coalition) enables you to create a personal fundraising page to track donations, update content and ask friends and family to support your cause.

How does this help the Amputee Coalition?

The Gofundme Charity tool is an easy and fun way to raise money in support of the Amputee Coalition. You can help those affected by limb loss by fundraising or making a donation to the Amputee Coalition. Your gift enables the Coalition to reach out to and empower people affected by limb loss to achieve their full potential through education, support and advocacy, and to promote limb loss prevention.

  2. Follow the steps provided on Gofundme Charity to create your own fundraising page in support of the Amputee Coalition.
  3. Sign up for an account with Gofundme Charity or log-in to an existing account.
