“Whoever relieves a believer’s distress of the distressful aspects of this world, Allah will rescue him from a difficulty of the difficulties of the Hereafter.” — (Recorded in Muslim)

In a world where challenges arise unexpectedly and the needs of our community continue to evolve, personal fundraising has emerged as a beacon of hope. It’s a trend that reflects the core values of our faith—compassion, generosity, and the collective power of the Ummah. At LaunchGood, we are not just a platform; we are a movement committed to uplifting individuals and communities through meaningful support. And today, we are excited to unveil our latest initiative designed to empower personal campaigns: The Flash Support Fund.

Why LaunchGood Wants to Support and Empower Personal Fundraisers

At LaunchGood, we believe Muslims are incredible, and the Ummah deserves better. This belief drives our mission to serve every member of our community with excellence and care. One of our guiding principles is Ihsan (Excellence)—a value that pushes us to treat each personal fundraiser with the same attention and dedication that we would give to a VIP NGO. We are not just about meeting needs; we are about exceeding expectations and bringing Barakah (blessings) into every campaign.

We understand that personal hardships can be overwhelming, but we also know that within the Ummah, there is an immense capacity for kindness and support. Our operating principle, Attract Barakah, reflects our conviction that by alleviating the struggles of those in need, we invite divine blessings into our lives and communities.

The Flash Support Fund: A Game-Changer for Personal Campaigns

So, what exactly is the Flash Support Fund? We’re thrilled to introduce this innovative initiative, designed to provide a powerful boost to personal campaigns on LaunchGood. It’s a testament to our unwavering commitment to supporting those who are striving to make a difference in their own lives and the lives of others.

How Does the Flash Support Fund Work?

The Flash Support Fund is designed to give campaign creators a jumpstart when they need it most—at the very beginning. Here’s how it works:

• Matching Funds: Once a campaign hits its first $2,000 within the initial 48 hours, we will match it with an additional $2,000 (in local currency). This matching is powered by our generous community of Friday Givers—people who have committed to giving regularly every Friday.
• $30,000 Available Weekly: Each week, we’ve allocated $30,000 for this initiative, ensuring that as many personal campaigns as possible receive the support they need to succeed.
• Eligibility: The fund is exclusively for individual or personal campaigns. Whether you’re raising funds for medical needs, communal tragedies, family support, or even legacy projects, the Flash Support Fund is here to help.

In Numbers: The Impact of the Flash Support Fund

Our initiative is already making a significant impact. In August 2024 alone, nearly a million dollars were raised for personal campaigns on LaunchGood, benefiting from the Flash Support Fund and the optimization we provide to each campaign.
