More than money

The same link that collects donations can collect the sizes everyone keeps asking for.

A SupportNow fundraiser lives inside a Support Page: money, gift cards, meals, and helping hands in one place. Supporters give what they can and follow your updates in one spot.

Donations

Every gift goes to your family

Gift cards

Clothes and basics, bought your way

Meal signups

Dinner while you have no kitchen

Updates

Tell everyone once, in one place

What it can cover

One place for starting over, from tonight to next year.

A fire takes the house and the toothbrush at the same time. Your community can help with both.

Right now

The first 48 hours

Clothes, shoes, toiletries, medications, phone chargers, and a safe place to sleep tonight.

Somewhere to live

The next few months

Deposits, rent on a temporary place, and the pet boarding nobody plans for.

Replacing the basics

Making it a home again

Beds, appliances, kitchen essentials, school supplies, work tools, and a car seat.

What the policy misses

The gap

Renters with no coverage, underinsured homeowners, and the deductible before anything pays out.

A SupportNow fundraiser is not locked to a category. The money goes to your family, and you decide what it covers.

The invitation

Half the neighborhood wants to drop something off. Give them one place.

After a fire, help arrives fast and unsorted. A support page turns goodwill into what you actually need.

How it can feel

Like asking for help

  • Telling people you have nothing left
  • Sorting donated clothes in three wrong sizes
  • Answering the same questions from everyone who heard
What it really is

An answer to "how can I help?"

  • Telling people exactly what your family needs first
  • Turning "I have a spare couch" into something you can actually use
  • Posting one update instead of retelling it fifty times
People want to help. Most just don't know how. They cannot give you the house back, so they show up with bags of things you did not ask for. Your page tells them what would actually help.

The part nobody tells you

How families bridge the months before a claim pays

Emergency help is real, and it is short. The rebuilding runs much longer.

Fundraising stacks with everything else. The Red Cross, local relief funds, and your insurance policy all help. A fundraiser covers the stretch between the first few nights and a settled claim.
The hard truth

Where the usual options fall short

  • Emergency assistance is built for the first few nights, not the months that follow
  • Renters often have no policy at all, and the building's insurance does not cover your belongings
The good news

Where families actually find relief

  • Community fundraising arrives in days, and you decide what gets replaced first
  • A fundraiser and a claim stack, so your community can carry you while the adjuster works

Questions families ask

House fire fundraiser FAQs

What can a house fire fundraiser pay for?
Anything your family needs: clothes and toiletries in the first days, a deposit on a temporary place, beds and appliances, and the deductible before insurance pays. Donations go to your family, so you set the priorities.
We have homeowners insurance. Why would we still need to fundraise?
Claims take time, and the money usually arrives in stages long after your family needs clothes, a bed, and a place to cook. Policies also have deductibles and limits, and personal belongings are frequently worth more than the coverage on them.
We were renting and had no insurance. Can we still do this?
Yes, and this is one of the most common reasons families start a page. The building owner's policy covers the building, not your belongings. A fundraiser is often the main way renters replace what they lost.
Can a neighbor or coworker start it for the family?
Yes, and it is one of the most common setups. A neighbor, coworker, or church member can create the page, post updates, and coordinate gift cards and meals while the family finds somewhere to sleep. The funds still go to the family.
Can people give things instead of money?
Yes. A Support Page can collect gift cards and specific requests alongside donations, so supporters can cover a mattress or a week of groceries instead of guessing at sizes. You choose what to list.
Is it really free?
Yes. Starting a fundraiser is free, and SupportNow charges families no platform fee. Card processors charge a small fee on each donation, and donors can cover it with RoundUp, so your family keeps 100% of the gift.
