Welcome to OpenGiving. We're here to help you get started.
OpenGiving was created by alumni from Babson University, Boston University, Olin College of Engineering, and Insper to make it easier for people to support one another.
We pair traditional crowdfunding with a marketplace for goods, digital products and services. Supporters can give you money directly, or list something of their own and send a share of each sale to your campaign (10-100%, or 0-100% for a digital item). This gives your community more ways to support you.
It is completely free to launch a campaign on OpenGiving. There are no setup fees, and you will always have access to a real support team if you need guidance along the way. From shaping your story to setting your goal, we are here to lend a hand.
Launch Your Campaign in 3 Easy Steps
1. Set Up Your Campaign
Start with the essentials:
- Choose a campaign category
- Select your campaign location
- Write a short description of what you are raising for
- Set a fundraising goal that fits your needs
2. Add Photos
Upload a few photos to help people understand your campaign at a glance. Clear images help others better understand your campaign and why it matters.
3. Review and Launch
Take a final look at your campaign, then publish it when you are ready. Once live, you can share it with your network, post updates, and track your progress as support comes in.
Support, Every Step of the Way
Every campaign is different, and every goal matters. Whether you are raising support for yourself, a loved one, or your community, OpenGiving is here to help you succeed.
If you ever have questions, or need help along the way, our team is always happy to support you.
