About GratefulFund
A fundraising platform built for communities — crowdfunding campaigns for schools and teams, and hosted giving pages for churches to collect tithes and offerings online.
Our Mission
GratefulFund exists to make fundraising accessible, transparent, and meaningful. We believe every worthy cause deserves a fair shot at the resources it needs — regardless of the size of its network or marketing budget.
We focus on community-driven causes: the youth sports team that needs new uniforms, the school that wants to build a library, the church collecting tithes and offerings from members at home and abroad, and the individual facing unexpected hardship. These are the stories that matter.

Our Fees
Campaigns: GratefulFund is powered by optional donor tips. Donors can choose to add a small tip when donating — 100% of that tip goes toward keeping the platform running. There are no mandatory platform fees on campaign donations.
Church Giving: Gifts include a platform fee plus payment processing fees. The member pays the amount they enter; fees are deducted before the net amount is credited to the church. The current fee rate is shown on each church's giving page.
Standard Stripe card processing fees apply to card payments (typically 2.9% + 30¢ per transaction). Mobile money gifts through PawaPay are subject to PawaPay's processing fees. We do not control third-party processor rates.
