Dhul Hijjah is one of the most spiritually powerful times of the year—and on LaunchGood, it’s also one of the most impactful. Whether you’re raising funds for a cause close to your heart or looking to expand your donor base, we’ve created special opportunities to help you thrive, inshaAllah.
What’s happening this Dhul Hijjah?
This Dhul Hijjah, we’re empowering fundraisers with three powerful ways to boost donations, grow support, and make the most of the blessed 9 days:
- Dhul Hijjah Referrals — Earn $50 every time someone signs up for the Dhul Hijjah Challenge using your referral code and donates at least $3 daily.
- Daily Leaderboard Contest — Compete daily to raise the most funds or rally the most supporters and win top prizes (with double rewards on Arafat!).
- Power Hours — 1 daily power hour with a $3,000 prize pool to reward the most impactful moments.
These are designed to give your fundraiser a real boost during the most sacred stretch of the year—while connecting more donors to the power of giving.

How donations work
When someone uses your referral code to join the Dhul Hijjah Challenge:

- After that, their daily giving will support a new cause each day during Dhul Hijjah, selected from the global pool of fundraisers on LaunchGood
This means your fundraiser benefits up front—while your referral helps unlock impact across the community.

Every day of Dhul Hijjah, LaunchGood will reward the top fundraisers in two key categories:
- Most Raised: Highest total amount raised in a single day
