How to Start a Charity Fundraiser on Yar, Step by Step
The Yar team · · 2 min read

Sometimes a need is bigger than one person can meet alone: a neighbour's family going through a hard season, a community kitchen during Ramadan or support for students in your home district. Yar's charity fundraisers make it possible for anyone with a Yar account to gather help from friends, relatives and the wider community. Here is how it works.
Step 1: Prepare your story
Before you open the form, take time to think about what you want to say. A good fundraiser is honest, clear and respectful. Explain who the fundraiser will help, what the money will be used for and how you are connected to the cause. Avoid exaggeration and protect people's dignity: there is no need to share private details or images that could embarrass anyone.
- Who is being helped, described with respect
- What the money will pay for
- Your connection to the people or the cause
- How you will keep donors updated
Step 2: Create the fundraiser
Sign in to your account and go to start a fundraiser. Fill in the details, set a realistic goal and add your description. If you do not have an account yet, you can create one first; anyone with an account can start a fundraiser.
Step 3: Yar reviews your fundraiser
Every fundraiser is reviewed by Yar before it goes live. As part of the review, Yar may call you and check your ID. This step protects donors and organisers alike, and it helps keep the community's trust in every fundraiser on the page. Please answer calls and messages promptly so the review can be completed.
Step 4: Share and receive donations
Once approved, your fundraiser appears on the charity page. Share the link with family groups, friends and your community. Donors can give by card or HesabPay. Yar keeps 5% to cover payment costs and pays the rest to you as the organiser.
Step 5: Use the funds as promised
When the money reaches you, use it exactly as you described. Thank donors and, where appropriate, share a short update about how the help was used, without exposing anyone's private situation. Honest follow-up is what turns a single fundraiser into lasting community trust.
Yar is not a registered charity, and donations are not tax-deductible unless the organiser says otherwise. If you have questions about the process, the help page and FAQ are good places to start.
