GoFundMe and the 2025 UX100 non-profit award
UX100 · 9 December 2025
GoFundMe leads non-profit UX for 2025. The story, the goal, and the gift are in that order, so a stranger can act without a briefing.
A fundraiser has to be finishable
The person who needs help is a bad time to learn a CMS. GoFundMe’s interface makes a page a supporter can read in a minute: what happened, what the number is, how to give. The 2025 award is for that compression under emotional load.
The organizer and the donor are different users. The product does not make them share one confused screen.
Order is the empathy
Story, then goal, then gift. Reverse it and you have a payment form with a caption. GoFundMe keeps the order even when the templates multiply. That is the interface standard UX100 published.
The giving category
Charity Navigator led 2024 by making trust in an organization searchable. GiveWell leads 2026 with a recommendation you can audit. GoFundMe’s 2025 piece is the personal campaign a second person can complete.
