Which Countries Does Give A Hand Support?
Our platform currently supports fundraiser creation in the following countries:
- United States (excluding these U.S. territories: American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.)
- United Kingdom
- Canada
This means you must be able to fulfill all requirements for a transfer of funds within the country you reside in order to create a fundraiser.
“What If I Don’t Meet Transfer Funds Requirements of my country?”
In the case that a fundraiser is created without the ability to transfer funds within these countries, the account will be removed and the funds will be refunded.
In order to receive the funds from your Give A Hand fundraiser for an individual, you’ll need to meet several requirements. You’ll find the list of requirements below, but please know that our payment processor, Stripe, may require additional documentation to verify bank info, identities, and more.
Requirements to receive funds:
- A government-issued driver’s license, state I.D., or passport
- A residential address within the country selected (this cannot be a PO box)
- A phone number belonging to the country of residence
- A bank account in your name located in your country
- A United States SSN or equivalent for other countries
- Must be 18 years of age or older
TIP: Decide which person (organizer or beneficiary) will receive the transfer of funds so you can set up the bank information as you create the fundraiser.
