At GoFundMe, our benefits are not designed in the abstract. They are shaped by the realities of the work we do, the stories we witness, and the responsibility our teams carry every day. Supporting people through moments of crisis, generosity, and loss requires more than empathy—it requires a company that actively invests in the wellbeing of its people. This belief guides how we design, prioritize, and evolve our benefits.
Our benefits philosophy is anchored in three core principles:
The emotional labor of our work is real and cumulative. We treat mental health as essential infrastructure, not a perk, by investing in accessible therapy, mental health coverage, and resources that support resilience and recovery.
We see healthcare gaps every day through our platform. Our benefits intentionally address inequities in women’s health, reproductive care, and family building—areas too often underprioritized in tech.
Given the emotional and life-stage complexity of our workforce, we design our medical plans to provide richer access, lower barriers to care, and broader coverage than typical market benchmarks.
We are not checking boxes or chasing benefits benchmarks. We lead in these areas because our mission shows us every day—why they matter. At GoFundMe, caring for people is not separate from performance. It is how we sustain it.
