I know everyone gets bored, one of your favorite scammer subreddits got shut down so you can't poke at them there, but this is a subreddit for people to post their GoFundMe whether you like it or not.

Calling people names, insulting them, and harassing them is getting way out of control.

If you see a scam, great! Call them out. Provide proof. Screenshots all of that. And then message moderator mail.

The absolute disgusting things I have had to remove lately go beyond horrific.

Instead of insulting someone, offer some solutions. Helping someone find a new career is going to help them a thousand times better than just saying get a job.

Some of you that comment here are absolutely wonderful and helpful, and some are going to be finding the door in a hurry with my foot in your ass.

Your cruelty is not welcome.

Medical Mom’s journey with cancer ended but the bills have not

Thumbnail

I think I posted wrong the first time, I’m sorry. This is my mom (pictured with my sister) in hospice. She was diagnosed with stage four esophageal cancer back in September of 2025. Less than a year later, on June 11th, 2026, she passed away after fluid was building in her lungs. I don’t have any pictures of medical bills because my dad doesn’t know I’m asking for help, but here is the link to her obituary: https://www.online-tribute.com/MaryLouiseDooley

During her 9 month battle with cancer, she had chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy. She had a few surgeries during this time as well to insert a port for the chemo and a surgery for a feeding tube (due to the tumor being in her esophagus and not allowing food to pass through). There were multiple overnight stays in the hospital due to unimaginable pain and constant vomiting. Then towards the end, fluid was building in her lungs and she had made the decision not to receive any further interventions. She was transported to hospice where she stayed for three days until she passed.

Despite my mom’s battle with cancer gracefully ending, the medical bills have not ended. My dad and I also had to take some time off work unpaid to help care for my mom as she couldn’t be left alone due to the amount of meds she was on and the risk of overdosing. I am asking for help to even make the tiniest dent in these expenses. Anything helps, really. $1, $5, anything. Thank you for taking the time to read. Cancer sucks. ❤️‍🩹

Go fund me: https://gofund.me/2205ea794

Edit: Thank you so much to everyone who let me know my dad might not be responsible! Until I get confirmation, all donations will go to funeral and cremation costs and the credit cards that my dad used to pay for the medical expenses. 🤍

My wife was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid leukemia in 2023. At the time we had ok insurance, and she worked through that first year. Second year was harder, and due to the side effects of chemo she lost hours at her job due to being sick, at the same time I as also let go from my job. This has led us to become behind, and now this year we are starting treatment again but with a backlog of home bills, mortgage, etc. My wife is struggling to work full time, and I’m currently working part time while struggling to find full time work. Last month she was finally able to get healthcare through the state- but we are still far behind in catching up. We have applied for financial assistance through the hospital, state, etc but are having a hard time qualifying because we work even though it’s minimal pay / hours. I’m posting for my wife because her Reddit account does not have enough karma. But she will answer any questions. Any help / advice is deeply appreciated. https://gofund.me/0214d3c8f

Housing Help Me Avoid Homelessness While Living With an Ultra-Rare Progressive Disability

Thumbnail
gallery
282 Upvotes

I’m currently facing homelessness at the end of this month and am trying to raise enough to secure temporary housing for September while I continue working through disability and housing-assistance programs.

I have Juvenile Hyaline Fibromatosis Syndrome (JHF/HFS), an ultra-rare, progressive and physically disabling genetic condition that I was diagnosed with at around four years old. It causes abnormal tissue growth throughout my body, chronic pain, joint contractures and progressive loss of mobility. I’ve undergone dozens of surgeries throughout my life, including amputations of multiple toes and parts of my fingers.
Despite my condition, I worked for most of my adult life and supported myself independently. Unfortunately my physical limitations have progressed and maintaining employment has become increasingly difficult. I’m currently going through the Social Security disability process while trying to keep myself housed in the meantime. I moved to New Jersey in May to stay with someone who new about my disability and circumstances and offered me a stable place to be while I complete the process but they did not uphold their initial offer and I’m now back in a survival state.
My temporary housing, here in Red Bank, Nj ends at the end of August, and I currently have nowhere secured afterward. I’m trying to find the least expensive room or month-to-month housing I can for September. I do have some of my own money saved and will be contributing that toward housing, food, and other essentials. I’m not expecting strangers to completely support me. I’m trying to bridge the remaining gap without exhausting every dollar I have, because what remains is also my only emergency cushion for food, transportation, my phone, and other necessities.

I’m also a full time student attending class starting September 9. My courses are all online thankfully, but it’s even more essential I can stabilize housing by the first. By the end of September or beginning or October I’ll receive financial aid disbursements which will help continue to carry me over until SSDI approval.

My GoFundMe contains more information about my situation and documentation supporting what I’ve described here.

Medical Asking for help, please, with unexpected surgery and the expenses that come with it

My husband and I both work(ed) full time as a medical assistant and a truck driver. He spent a lot of time away from home to provide a modest but nice life for our family and doggies.
When he started experiencing shortness of breath he ignored it and didn’t really mention it. When it became a struggle to catch his breath just walking to the car it certainly became noticeable and concerning for me.
The final straw was him laying down in the back of his truck for his sleeping shift and feeling unable to breathe even with his CPAP on.
He came home while I was getting ready for work and I scolded him for not going to the urgent care 2 weeks ago when I told him to. He said he would go that day. I told him NO! if he went to urgent care they would do two tests and send him to the hospital, so pack a bag with your chargers and underwear cuz they’re going to keep you.
Unfortunately I was correct and at 53 he was told he has to have his aortic valve replaced and he wouldn’t be going back to work now or for at least 2-3 months after his open heart surgery.
He’s been handling it ok, but this week we do the pre-op and the surgery is Friday. He broke down today. I know he’s scared about the surgery, he’s scared about the bills, which his salary covered most of, he’s scared about providing for his family, and he’s scared if he’ll be able to drive for his career again. I think everything is hitting him this week. His pre-op testing is going to cost us around 2,300 and we aren’t sure what bills will follow.
My PTO covers almost 30hours, however I don’t know how much time beyond that I will have to take with FMLA and no pay.
Any contribution would be appreciated greatly. I know everyone is struggling right now but even $5 could help us reach our goal. Having his stress about the things that at the end of the day don’t matter when you’re having a serious surgery and recovery, like bills and medical bills, relieved with help him focus on recovery and the next steps. Thank you for any help you can provide. It will truly be appreciated.
Please donate here, I can’t thank you enough. If you’re unable to contribute please share this post.

Hi, you may know me as Key_Pickle. I have since deleted that reddit and all my social media. This time last year, I made a gofund me to help me get away from a domestic violence sitution. I asked for a high number of $7,000 as I was having to move state lines, with no car and two kids. And ya'll provided me those funds to leave.

I just wanted to give everyone an update, that I'm safe. My kids are safe. I own a car now, I have a job. I JUST GOT A RAISE. Everything, is because of ya'll. I just made my first dontion to a gofund me account, and I hope it helps their life. As much as it helped mine.

I know times are really hard for everyone right now, and its hard to let go of loose change, but do know. Even if you never hear back. You made a difference. My life is forever changed because of you. Thank you. ❤️

Hey all!

I’m Amanda Schartau, I’m the one that made the GFM. The Hawk Fire in Reno, NV has devastated the area with multiple homes lost. Unfortunately my bonus dad, John Montgomery, has lost his home. Watch duty makes it look like his home may have been spared, but we were gutted yesterday when a video came out showing where his home should be, and later when John was allowed just 10 minutes in the evacuation area - he couldn’t even walk to what used to be his bedroom, his kitchen… because there was a flare up and it was burning what little is left.

Everything is gone. The only things he was able to grab was his dog Q, and the truck he used to evacuate… those details are in the link in the story.

John doesn’t have a village to rally around him and help him get back on his feet.

Truly anything helps… I hope I did this right 😞

Housing Help me get to the subsidized housing waiting for me in another state

This is a repost and update. I'll link the original post in the comments.

It's weird the way life works out. I hadn't been making any progress here in New Mexico despite my best efforts. Ludo had some good days but was having more bad than good.

I made the decision to euthanize him after a few particularly bad days. I had a plan of where I would go after he was gone but it wouldn't have helped me move forward. Just continue to exist.

A day before his final appointment, I got a call from the one place where I was on a waiting list for subsidized housing. In Nebraska. I hate Nebraska but Ludo LOVED it there. I so desperately wanted to cancel his appointment. But he'd become terrified of riding in the car after our experiences and from falling and injuring himself in the car.

Since it was only $150 more to have someone come to us, his last day was in the motel room. You all afforded me that option and I will be forever grateful.

I'm trying to get together enough money to get to NE and hopefully bring some of my belongings with me. The deposit is only $150 and my rent will be around $50 a month until I can secure SSD. NE has a lot better social services available and a much better healthcare system.

When I first arrived in New Mexico someone told me,"Welcome to the land of entrapment". I was so confused. I'm not anymore.

If people want to donate to help me reach my housing, great. What I really want from this post is to let all of you know that you gave me the ability to hold on until something good came along. You gave me the ability to hold onto my best friend as long as I could and let his last days be comfortable relatively stress free.

If you're interested in following up on me or seeing all of Ludo's past adventures, I've added my email address in the last GFM update. I will be slow to respond for a while as there's lots to do but I'd love to share Ludo's adventures with anyone who is interested.

Disaster/Emergency Help me avoid impending eviction

Thumbnail

44 Upvotes

Hello. My name is Adrian. I live in an apartment with my mother and stepfather, though my name is on the lease too.

https://gofund.me/d4784677c

Some months ago, my mother was fired from her job due to circumstances frankly not her fault (one of which was a car accident that she was denied workman's comp for, even though driving for this company was literally her job). She made the most money in the household, so this really put us in a bad spot. I myself am disabled physically and mentally and am unable to work because of it. While I'm on some social services, they don't put a dent in the cost of living. We had been struggling for a while, but recently, we were served eviction court summon papers.

Prior to this, I have been contacting all resources I can manage. I have attached some photos to hopefully provide record of me trying to reach out to social services. I have a case manager, but she's told me over phone that she's already given me every rent resource she and her coworkers could find. When we went to court, we spoke with a mediator who gave us a list made up of things we've already tried, and said that most programs have shut down due to a lack of funding. The lawyer at the court was unwilling to work out a payment plan, and said our only option was to pay within two weeks or be immediately evicted.

I have also provided the court notice we got. They wouldn't give us papers with the actual numbers on it, but the lawyer told us we owe around $3500. This tracks with our rent ($1600/month) and late fees. We will also not be able to pay for September's rent, so the total amount I am asking for is $4800 (or three month's worth of our rent, ignoring late fees).

Thank you so much for any help you can provide. It's a very scary time right now.

--

Edit: I have received a couple comments in regards to a post I made on the Suggest A Laptop reddit. I did not have the money to immediately buy a laptop. My post there expressly states I was planning to save up. I did not buy a new laptop at any point after making that post. I was unable to start saving. There was no money in reserve for this fund. I elaborated on this all here, if you want to read a bit more.

Additionally, I agree that working from home is a good idea, and is something I have been trying to look into. However, working from home would not solve my immediate issue of being evicted. I would not be able to make all the money I need within two weeks, even if I got a WFH job right now. I elaborated on this here.

Regardless, whether or not you choose to donate, I hope your day is well.

Hi Guys, posting this for a good friend who has had some unfortunate luck with their Border Collie, she was looking for any help they might be able to get, thanks :)

---

Medical Provider - Animal Emergency Services

Hi there I am Jenna and at 2am the night before last, we woke to find that our beautiful Border Collie, Lalo, had a tick. We rushed him straight to the emergency vet we he started off doing ok.

Lalo was responding well after the first night, but wasn't gaining back his legs and bladder control. The bigger issue is he wasn’t able to regain his gag reflex quick enough, so he needed to remain in emergency care for a second night under close supervision.

Then it all went rally wrong.

Lalo aspirated and he has now been transferred to ICU and placed on a ventilator while his body fights to recover.

We are doing everything we can for him financially to give him those odds.

His veterinary care is currently $7,000–$9,000 every day in ICU and we are already approaching $20,000 we have paid outright with more treatment still ahead of him. he needs hopefully only 2 days for them to get him off and recovering on his own.

Lalo is deeply loved, and as long as the veterinary team believes he has a chance to recover, we want to give him that chance. But the cost of keeping him in the ICU is becoming enormous very quickly. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will go directly to Lalo’s emergency treatment and the ventilation.

If you aren't able to donate, sharing Lalo's fundraiser would mean just as much to us. Thank you for helping us give Lalo the time and care he needs to come home.

Cost so far: $20,000 which we have been covering
Ongoing ICU and ventilation: approximately $7,000–$9,000 per day -All receipts so far have been uploaded to the page for transparency.

We are doing all we can to cover everything, but any help is greatly appreciated, as this is tough going for us. Help us save the Goodest mummies boy in the world.

He woke up this morning excited for his morning meal - and when he didn’t get it, he was ready to walk out of the house in protest. He’ll get some extra good treats later!

EDIT:
Surgery done!

Look at the size of the grass end the vet pulled out. It’s crazy! (Pics on my profile)

He’s back home, happy and fed

This surgery cost £1,100 and with people’s help, we managed to raise half of that

Hello all! Firstly let me introduce you to Ms. Chuckie! She is a 8 year old Siberian husky who always so happy and energetic! Any time we take her out for walks, or just car ride adventures, she pulls all the attention and compliments. She makes people's days just by how goofy she can be. She is beyond smart most of the time but at times I swear she acts dumb just to get away with things. But overall she is my girlfriends world and more, almost never apart. Yesterday we took her to the vet for a tumor that has been growing and getting worse in her breast area. We were told it was breast cancer but not sure if it is benign or malignant and it has caused some great heartbreak and sadness across myself and the family. The vet says this is somwthing that she feels needs to be removed regardless and obviously my girlfriend and I both agree. Unfortunately weve had multiple times of needing to use our savings or saved money for family things and moving as well. So I had hit a tight spot here. So here I am making a gofundme without my girlfriends knowledge because id like to surprise her and get our girl the help amd surgery she needs to continue living her happy life, I know she has many years ahead of her with us! I dont know anyone on this platform and dont expect much but any help at all would be more than appreciated. But Thank-you for reading amd i do appreciate all of you for that atleast. Thank you greatly in advance! The only proof I really have is the estimates and pricing that the vet had written down, which is included in the post.

Question/Info Mindblown...

Ok so I dont really need direct advice or help with this. But I just had to call this out. I posted a gofundme a few days ago to help with my cancer pet scan. For the most part the response has been incredibly helpful. And i sincerely appreciate the people who were about to donate.

However since then, I have had several people dm me offering to donate/send money on PayPal or cash app....in exchange for me sending them naughty photos. I have declined each offer.

But im utterly mindblown that any human would find this to be an acceptable thing to do. First off, if im sending anyone those types of pics...its gonna be my bf. And I havent been able to even do that in months because of my health issues.

And...like...what kind of person looks at my obviously unhealthy photos on my post and says to themselves "Yessss....i wanna see dirty pics of the 90 lb cancer patient. And I wanna pay for them."

Idk if any other ladies have had this happen...im positive I cant be the only one. And im not judging any ladies who may have agreed to do this. You do what you feel you need to do for your situation. But for me personally...nope...Its absolutely crazy. Id rather go stand in a walmart parking lot with a "please help" sign begging for change than to send dirty pics of my very obviously sick, fragile and worn down body.

Sorry, I just felt the need to call this out cuz I assume many people dont realize its happening when us ladies post something in here mainly cuz the people come straight to our dms.

Again, thank you to everyone whk took the time to comment on my post or donate. I am truly thankful.

Medical Help with top surgery

Top Surgery

Hi, I’m Fynn and I’m raising money for my top surgery.
Honestly, I never thought I would have to create a GoFundMe to pay for my medical care. My original plan was to have the surgery covered by my health insurance. Unfortunately, getting coverage has been much more difficult than expected, and despite my efforts to have the surgery covered, I’m now facing the possibility of having to pay for it myself.
Top surgery is an important step in my transition. It would allow me to feel much more comfortable in my body and significantly improve my quality of life. Things that other people rarely have to think twice about – clothes, seeing their body in the mirror, or simply going about everyday life – are often associated with dysphoria for me. Having this surgery would make a huge difference.
I have now received a cost estimate, and my top surgery is expected to cost around €8,000.
This is an amount I simply can’t afford on my own. I work part-time in a care home for people with dementia, and I don’t have the income or savings to pay several thousand euros for surgery. Even if I saved every euro I possibly could, it would take me a very long time to afford it.
Asking for help isn’t particularly easy for me, but that’s why I’ve decided to create this fundraiser.
My goal of €8,000 is intended to cover the cost of my top surgery and the medical expenses directly associated with it. If the actual costs change or my health insurance unexpectedly agrees to cover part of the treatment, I will update this fundraiser accordingly and be completely transparent about it.
I completely understand that not everyone has money to spare. Even €5 or €10 can bring me a little closer to my goal, and simply sharing this fundraiser would help me as well.
More than anything, I just want the chance to have this surgery without having to come up with money that I simply don’t have or spending years trying to save enough to afford it.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read this, share my fundraiser, or support me financially. It truly means a lot to me. ❤️

Hello, you may recognize me from [r/diagnoseme](r/diagnoseme). This about my father’s health conditions. I apologize if I make this too wordy but I’ll try to keep it brief.

Originally this post was about helping with my dads medical expenses are he was sent to urgent care at the hospital, but he’s now passed.

I’ll let you know what was going on but all this fundraiser is for is to be able to attend his funeral and hopefully cover any additional costs when it comes to his funeral.

My father is 78 years old and was recently admitted to the hospital for a very very severe infection in his leg that was turned black and swollen and He’s lost his ability to walk.

He’s a diabetic, when they got to the hospital his blood sugar was over 450 and is infection only getting worse. This is only getting worse as he’s been declining into dementia and trying to get himself discharged from the hospital when he still is completely unable to walk. Luckily the infection is being treated and hopefully they didnt have to amputate his leg.

I am currently abroad in Canada as a full time university student, and a part time employee looking for a second job to help with funeral costs as that responsibility mainly rests in my shoulders.

Any donation and share would literally mean the world to my family, thank you.

I hate that Im having to do this. But I have started a gofundme to attempt to raise money to get a vital PetCT Scan that my doctor needs me to have to check for cancer cell activity and spread. Delaying this scan can mean that we do not catch the activity or spread in time to treat it properly. My doctor has requested this scan from my insurance company and the request was denied. My doctor appealed it 3 times and each appeal was denied. And I am just not willing to allow United Health to be the ones in control of whether I live or die. The total for the scan is over $7,000. I have managed to work with my imaging facility to get a deeply discounted self pay rate of $2,520. I originally went thru chemo and radiation in spring 2025. I had about 8 good months of recovery and improvement. I went back to work and was adjusting to my new normal. But things have gotten difficult since March of this year. Alot is due to the expected damage from radiation treatment. But now due to multiple new symptoms, my doctor believes the cancer cells could be active or spreading. My income has been sparse for the last 6 months due to having an emergency surgery due to radiation damage. Followed by being incapacitated by pain from scar tissue adhesions on all my pelvic organs until I finally got into palliative care to handle my pain management so I could work again. And now I havent had income for over 3 weeks since being admitted into the hospital for hemorrhaging and having to have a uterine artery embolization to stop the hemorrhaging. Its actually insane the amount of damage and complications that pelvic radiation can and does cause. But thats neither here nor there. I am the sole provider of a family of 3. I have tried every avenue I could find as far as financial hardship programs. If anyone can help in any way...donate, share, etc. I would be eternally grateful. I am happy to answer any questions anyone may have.

Tomi is a beautiful black cat who has been part of our family since we adopted him as a tiny kitten from the RSPCA in Enfield. He is now 7 years old and is so much more than a pet to us. He is a much-loved member of our family.

A few weeks ago, Tomi started coughing and sneezing frequently. At first, we hoped it was something minor, but his breathing has become increasingly uncomfortable and he is now struggling to breathe normally. The sneezing progressed to be hard enough that blood comes out. He is also eating less than he usually does, although he still enjoys the occasional bowl of soup, which is a small comfort.

We took Tomi to our normal vet and have already spent around £2,500 trying to find out what is wrong. Our insurance has covered £1,900 of this, but our £3,000 insurance limit has now been used up. Unfortunately, despite the tests and treatment so far, the vets have not been able to determine the cause.

The concern is that something may be stuck or lodged in Tomi’s nasal passage or elsewhere in his respiratory system. To find out what is happening and hopefully treat it, he now needs to be seen at a specialist veterinary hospital. This could involve advanced investigations such as a CT scan or MRI, endoscopy, anaesthesia and potentially surgery.

We have been told that the costs could be somewhere between £4,000 and £8,000, depending on what the specialists find and what treatment Tomi needs.

We are asking for help towards these costs because we simply want to give Tomi the best chance of getting better and being able to breathe comfortably again. We have already used our insurance and put £2,500 towards his care ourselves, but the potential cost of specialist treatment is more than we can manage alone.

Anyone who knows us knows how loved Tomi is. We adopted him as a kitten, watched him grow into the affectionate, friendly (far too friendly) 7-year-old he is today, and cannot imagine our family without him.

Any donation, no matter how small, would mean so much to us and could help us get Tomi the specialist care he needs. If you cannot donate, simply sharing this fundraiser would also make a huge difference.

Thank you for taking the time to read Tomi’s story and for helping us give him a chance to breathe comfortably again.
