GoFundMe has been a virtual lifesaver for my baby son and myself! He was shot Jan 31 four times and lived because he utilized the same faith I used when he was born three days after my 42nd birthday to save his life. He received his name when the doctors’ said he was going to die. Blesset after Blessing a Nigerian friend, and Isaiah which means the Lord Saves! So when he was shot he told God you saved me once so I know you will save me again! Blesset has a carnote and then a woman hit me in his car without drivers license, or insurance! My middle suggested, GoFundMe which has literally made a world of difference! We have a rental where the gas in the SUV is extremely expensive! Then it’s easy to use! The instructions come to my email showing me how to Share our Plight to all Social Media Accounts! I’m truly Amazed at the Quality and the Ability of the Site and its benefits when it comes to Sharing! It easy to transfer the given donations’ to my bank, and for that I’m truly grateful! I’m grateful for GiFundMe, and who they are in this World Today! Phenomenal they are Truly the best Site this side of Heaven 💙💙💙

I am very happy with my experience with GoFundMe. Honestly, the only reason I didn’t give you 5 stars is because of 1 single problem. That being the fact that there isn’t a way to call and speak to someone if you run into an issue. I had an issue with my password and got locked out for a little while. Of course there is the regular “forgot password”, but for some reason it just wouldn’t work for me causing me to become very frustrated to the point of just giving up for a week or so. Thankfully, when I went back to try again, it worked just fine. HOWEVER, at that point, we had a difficult time setting up withdrawals and never really figured out why except the specifics bank was not one to choose from. Thankfully there was a way to do it manually by just putting in the bank account info. Then at that point, we were told it would take 2-5 business days to transfer the money, which I understand. However, if we had known that a little earlier, we could have done it before the bill we needed to pay came due. Honestly, some of these problems may have been “user error”, but, if I had been able to speak to a person, they could have walked me through it and alleviate my anxiety. Other than these issues, we have been very pleased with the app and the responses received.

I’m not going to lie about what’s going on in my life to get people to help me out. I put my story in there as truthful as possible. I did updates. I don’t know what else to do. I did not get a lot of traffic no matter how many times I shared, but I guess it’s just the circle of people around me or people that I’ve actually seen it I wish that gofundme had an automatic share button where they know where to share and automatically share for us in these platforms because right now we’re going through a lot and begging is not my thing I’m socially awkward and in need of help but I don’t know how to ask for it gofundme should make it easier to share stories because I’m not gonna lie. There should be a good amount of people that are willing to help somebody who doesn’t do drugs, who is not dead who legitimately lost their job I can’t make it. But I wish the gofundme had that opportunity that not only do you use their platform but also that they will help you share they get a fee. I wish they had a better way of sharing because right now I put my go fund me to help me save my apartment and the papers are going to be on the door very soon. And it’s so sad.
