Excellent Choice for Fundraising

I was very happy with YouCaring's easy to use website and excellent customer service. They are very quick to respond and follow up when you have questions. Great to work with and a great way to fund raise without a bunch of fees that take money away from your efforts. I would highly recommend YouCaring for anyone who had fundraising needs.

Reply from YouCaring

Hi George,

Thanks for taking the time to review YouCaring. I'm sorry you have not received any donations. While we do encourage sharing on social media, it is not a guarantee that you will receive donations. Fundraising is hard work and requires a lot of effort from the organizer! Our user relations team would be happy to give you some tips if you are looking for guidance. However, I do see that you have been in contact with our team several months ago. You will need to change your payment processor account in order to be able to receive funds. Please reach out to help@youcaring.com if you no longer have the instructions on how to do so.

100% Trust

A very trusted site that was quick to deposit money received, and their small percentage of take was initially attractive, but their dedication to detail, communication, and support was excellent.

Still Here.

Youcaring was an excellent way for friends to send support. Our funding drive was very successful. Both my wife and I were diagnosed with cancer this past year and the medical expenses wiped out our financial reserves. The funding drive helped us pay bills while attending to our health.

Easy to set up, easy to share.

We feel so fortunate to have such a successful fundraiser through Youcaring. It was as easy as writing our story, sharing and getting the funding we needed. I hope you don't have to use a fundraiser site, but if you do, I recommend Youcaring.

Our #1 Choice for Crowdfunding!

We've never had to use a fundraising/crowdfunding platform before deciding to adopt. When researching which platform we wanted to go with, we were pleased with the reviews of other users! YouCaring is so easy to use, and most importantly, FREE!

Caring of you

Before starting my fundarising, I researhced on different sites where to do it. YOUCARING was the only one which was not "hidding" in samll letters extra fees, or "surprise" fees after the campaign started. TRANSPARENCY.
The flexibility to change dates and rates was suitable to my campaign. FLEXIBILITY. The campaigns under the umbrella of YOUCARING are projects searching for a better world, humanity, society. In a very hard moment of my life, this foundraiser made me see that Someone was taking care of me. :)

Youcaring Works

I must admit I was a little skeptical when my Rep for Independent Living in NC suggested an online fundraiser to help with the funding with some medical needs I had, but Youcaring (and a lot of caring friends) came through and more than met my stated goal. There really are a few good companies and good people out there.

Youcaring was what we needed.

I needed to set up an fundraising site quickly and already knew about Go Fund Me. When I read the details for GoFundMe, I researched other sites to see if there was one that had no fee involved because I wanted the donors to know that their donations went straight to my sister. Youcaring was the answer. It was quick and fairly easy to set up with pictures, story, and updates. The only fee involved was the credit card processing charge which I think was approx. 3%. YouCaring is able not to charge because they give an option to add a donation from your donors. The $$ raised were always transferred to her bank account promptly and we didn't have to request the transfer or wait until a certain amount was raised. I thank Youcaring for all their help.

Very positive experience !

Helped tremendously in medical expenses for my son when he had to quit working due to his cancer. People were awesome, and You Caring was the facilitator. Thanks to all!

Easy

The site was easy to set up and easy to use. Allows for thank you emails to be sent to contributors as well. Cost is much lower than other similar sites.

A true blessing!

It was the best thing that happened to our family during the hard times of my wife's cancer treatments. We raised enough funds to pay for all the added expenses. I am so grateful that YouCaring was recommended to us. It was truly a Blessing from God to have all the many loving and caring people that donated to our cause. I thank everyone!!!

Worked like a charm!

Youcaring was exactly what we were looking for. I didn't feel like the fees were outrageous like some of the other crowdfunding sites. Money was sent to the bank account like they said -always on time. No complaints!
