AngeLink makes it our top priority to keep our platform, donors and beneficiaries safe and secure. We rely on our community to facilitate transparency by reporting any activity that may be regarded as suspicious, misleading or inaccurate. Before you donate, make sure the fundraiser information and story are clear and detailed.
As you evaluate, consider the following questions:
- Do you know the campaign organizer or beneficiary and how they are related?
- What is the purpose and use of funds? Does it seem logical and believable?
- Who will make withdrawals and how will they reach the beneficiary?
If you have any questions about the legitimacy of a fundraiser or a violation of our AngeLink Community Guidelines for Conduct or our Terms of Service, please “Report” a fundraiser or contact legal@angelink.com.
Please note that if a fundraiser is overfunded and still accepting donations, this means that our global outreach has led to an abundantly successful fundraiser. The campaign organizer may choose to increase the goal amount or leave it as is to reflect fundraiser success. This is usually not a reason to question the validity or legitimacy of the fundraiser.
It’s your kind heart and your money, so please review the campaign information and your comfort with the fundraiser to the make sure you're 100% pleased with your decision to support the campaign.
