    I do not know if anybody can help me but I thought to ask?

    I was going to start a GoFundMe for my Friend who needs it.

    This is what I need help with?

    When you go to start a GoFundMe it asks for your First and Last name witch would be me.

    So whoever goes to the page will see I started it because my name will show on the Top Right and when they open it.

    My Friend does not want me to put my name because my Friend does not want people we know to see I did this for Him.

    Am I not Right the name you give of who open the GoFundMe will have to match the Name of the Bank Holder where the Donations will be transferred to?

    Or do I not understand how this works?

    There's no way that you can start a Go Fund Me account anonymously.
    I started a Go Fund Me account for someone whose wife was dying from Covid in the hospital during the pandemic.
    I used his banking information with his account and routing number and the money went directly to him.
    You could clearly see I started the Go Fund Me but the other person was set up as beneficiary.
    There has to be a lot of trust between all parties when using a crowd funding platform.

    Somebody did try to start the GoFundMe and did Login but I could not find how to Edit the Story or how to Replace the Photo.

    Every Topic I would Read and every Video I watched would tell ways to do these things but the Tabs and things are not there.

    I had somebody here help me to look for things and we could not fin them.

    So that person Delete the Account because we could never get it to work.

    I wanted to try it but I do not think it is worth the time?

    Can you tell me if you had trouble like me?

    I don't know what exactly it is that you are trying to do.

    Well like I say not to long ago somebody did open a GoFundMe for my Friend.

    One Day me and Him tried to Edit the Story and Replace the Photo.

    Any little thing we tried to do we could not find out how.

    If we watched a video on how to Replace the Photo nothing would match up with what we saw on GoFundMe.

    So the Deleted the Account.

    I just thought maybe I would try to do it for Him.

    Did you have any thing happen like this or was it easy for you?
