Simply Wishes

Community Guidelines

SimplyWishes only works because wishers, granters, donors, and friends treat each other with honesty and respect. These guidelines describe what we expect from everyone in the community.

Last updated: August 21, 2026

1. Be Honest

Wishes, donations, happy stories, and profile details should reflect real needs and real experiences. Do not misrepresent who you are, exaggerate a need, or fabricate a story to gain sympathy, donations, or attention. Dishonest listings put resources meant for genuine wishes at risk and will be removed.

2. Be Respectful

Treat other members the way you'd want to be treated. Harassment, hate speech, threats, bullying, sexual content, or discrimination based on race, religion, gender, disability, or any other protected characteristic is never allowed in wishes, donations, forum posts, comments, chat messages, or profiles.

3. Keep It Safe

Don't share other people's private information without their consent, and be thoughtful about your own. When meeting to hand off a donation, choose a public place and bring someone with you when possible. Never send money to a stranger outside of the payment methods a listing already provides.

4. No Spam or Scams

Do not use wishes, donations, the forum, or chat to advertise unrelated products or services, run fundraising schemes for causes outside SimplyWishes, or attempt to solicit payments outside the platform's intended flow. Accounts used primarily to spam or scam other members will be suspended.

5. Respect Content Ownership

Only upload photos and videos you own or have permission to use. Do not post copyrighted material, including images of characters, brands, or products you don't have the rights to share.

6. Reporting and Enforcement

If you come across a wish, donation, forum post, happy story, comment, or message that breaks these guidelines, use the Report option available on that content so our team can review it. You can also block a member from your profile page if they've been contacting you inappropriately. Reports are reviewed by our team, and confirmed violations may result in content removal, a warning, or account suspension depending on severity.

7. Questions
