Yes, we offer the option to donate anonymously. This means your name will not be displayed publicly on the list of donors. However, the campaign organizer will usually still have access to your name and email address for record-keeping purposes.
We use secure payment processing systems that protect your personal and financial information. We use the latest SSL encryption and fully comply with PCI standards.
Most crowdfunding platforms charge a fee, typically a percentage of the funds raised. Some also charge payment processing fees. Our fees are the least expensive of all the platforms because we are a non-profit created to help Greeks and the Greek culture in every way.
To start a campaign, you'll need to create an account, set a funding goal, and describe your project or cause. High-quality photos and videos can help attract donors, as can a clear, compelling story.
You can promote your campaign through social media, email newsletters, and personal networks. Engaging with your community and providing regular updates can also help maintain momentum.
If your campaign exceeds its funding goal, you will receive the additional funds, minus any platform and payment processing fees. It's a good idea to plan for how any extra funds will be used and communicate this to your backers.
Funds are typically transferred to you via bank transfer, PayPal, or another payment service, depending on the platform. There may be a waiting period after your campaign ends before funds are released. Check our policies for specifics.
