This week, we brought nonprofit leaders together in San Diego for our Executive Leadership Retreat — two days dedicated to reflection, connection, and inspiration. From candid conversations on the weight and wonder of nonprofit leadership to practical workshops on managing through uncertainty, the retreat reminded us how powerful this community is when we come together. We explored topics shaping the future of giving — from engaging younger donors to the impact of small-dollar support — and left with renewed energy to grow generosity, together. As Tunde Wackman, CDO at World Central Kitchen, shared, “What I’m taking with me from this experience is more than insight or strategy—it's a deep reminder that leadership rooted in purpose doesn’t just inspire, it sustains.” At GoFundMe, we’re honored to create space for leaders who make change possible every day. 💚
About us
There are a billion good intentions tucked inside each and every one of us. At GoFundMe, we believe that the impulse to help a person, fix a neighborhood, or change a nation should never be ignored. In fact, it should be shared with the entire world. That’s why we make it easy to inspire the world and turn your compassion into action. By giving people the tools they need to capture and share their story far and wide, we have built a community of more than 200 million donors and helped organizers raise over $15 billion for the causes important to them—and we are just getting started. Check out current job openings, join our team, and be a part of the change below. ## GoFundMe has assembled one of the best management teams in the business to build the next leading consumer Internet company, including leaders from LinkedIn, Groupon, and Google. We are also funded by some of Silicon Valley’s best venture capital firms, including Accel, Greylock, and TCV.

If you’re not following Jimmy Darts on GoFundMe, you should be. He’s one of our platform’s most impactful creators, using his videos to spotlight kindness and help people in need. His latest fundraiser brought in more than $220,000 for a man and his family — all from one act of generosity that inspired thousands to give. You can now follow Jimmy (and other changemakers like him) directly on GoFundMe Profiles to see when they launch new fundraisers or donate. 💚 Give him a follow: https://gfme.co/4n151pF

💡 Imagine if your supporters had a charitable savings account for giving. That’s exactly what GoFundMe Giving Funds provides. It’s a better kind of it’s a donor-advised fund, because unlike traditional DAFs where dollars sit idle, Giving Funds are: ✔️ Designed to get the money out to nonprofits ✔️ Easy and accessible for everyday donors ✔️ Built to inspire generosity in the moments it matters most With DAF-to-DAF transfers, donors can move existing balances into Giving Funds, and with recurring contributions, they can give consistently over time. That means more engaged donors, more dollars flowing to missions like yours—and no extra work for nonprofits. 👉 The modern DAF that helps donors find you and give more. #DAFday #DonorAdvisedFunds #Philanthropy #NonprofitFundraising

Today is #DAFDay — and I couldn’t be prouder of what our team at GoFundMe has built. 💚 Giving Funds is our modern take on donor-advised funds, designed to make giving accessible to everyone. Because generosity shouldn’t be reserved for the wealthy — everyone deserves the ability to build their own fund and support the causes they care about most.
