Can I run a campaign for personal causes or charity?

Asked 5 months ago
Indiegogo primarily focuses on allowing individuals and organizations to fund creative projects, innovative ideas, and products. While it is possible to run a campaign for personal causes or charities, the platform emphasizes projects that have tangible outcomes, such as products or creative endeavors. Indiegogo encourages campaigners to connect their personal causes to a broader community impact, making it more appealing to potential backers. It is important to clearly articulate the purpose of the campaign, how the funds will be used, and the benefits to the community or individuals involved. Campaigns related to charity work may be classified under specific categories, so it is advisable to review Indiegogo’s current guidelines and resources on their website for more information on how to create a successful campaign for these types of initiatives.
