Rallies to support today
Real people, reviewed by our team before they went live.
Funeral costs for Mr. Delgado
He taught half the neighborhood to fix their own brakes. We want to send him off properly.

Dad's surgery and three weeks off work
He drives a truck. Recovery means no paycheck — and the surgery copay is due first.

Help the Alvarez family stay in their home
A medical bill landed in the same month as the rent. We need a bridge, not a rescue.

Heads up: campaigns marked Sample are examples showing how a Rally looks before real organizers publish. They have no donations recorded and no invented totals.
What happened?
Start with the situation — the closest story is usually the one that moves you.
Just started
New rallies that need their first few supporters.
New apartment after leaving a bad marriage
I left in September with the essentials. The deposit is the last wall between me and stable.

Rent bridge while I finish treatment
Six weeks of treatment left. Six weeks I can't work. Rent doesn't pause for either.

A wheelchair-accessible van for Jonah
He's eleven, he's hilarious, and he can't get to therapy in a car that fits his chair.

Our shop burned down — help us reopen
Twelve years of tools, gone. We're starting over with a rented bay and borrowed wrenches.

How Rally works
Three steps, no maze. You can save a draft at any point and come back to it.
Tell your story
Pick a category, share what's happening and set a goal. The wizard walks you through it.
Share your Rally
One tap shares your campaign with a ready-made caption to the people who know you.
Receive support
Donations are confirmed by our payment provider, then paid out to your verified account.
Fees, stated plainly
Rally charges 5% of eligible donations. The payment provider charges its own processing fee. Both are shown before a donor pays.

What we never do
- We don't hide fees inside the amount you think you're giving.
- We don't count pending, failed, refunded or reversed payments as money raised.
- We don't store card numbers, security codes or bank passwords — the payment provider handles those.
- We don't promise instant payouts. Timing follows the provider's eligibility checks.
Fees are configured by platform administrators and calculated on the server for every transaction, so the number a donor sees is the number that is recorded.
Trust and safety
Rally is built so that hope isn't something you have to take on faith.
Human review before a Rally goes live
Every campaign enters a review queue. We don't publish what fails a required check.
Funds confirmed by the payment provider
Progress counts only confirmed transactions — never pending, failed, refunded or reversed payments.
Real verification, never implied
A verified badge appears only after recipient verification genuinely completes.
Transparent fees, always shown
The platform fee and processing fee are disclosed before anyone pays.
See something that doesn't add up?
Every campaign has a report button. Reports go to a human review queue, and a campaign can be suspended while it's looked into. We never mark a campaign verified unless verification actually happened.
When life happens, we rally.
Someone you know is one hard month away from needing this. Start a Rally for yourself, or give a stranger a better week.
