Start a community campaign

You'll be the owner of this campaign. You can add co-owners afterward from the campaign page.

What kind of effort is this?

Reporting a short-lived hazard (a dangerous animal, a downed line, etc.)? Use "+ Report a hazard" on the home page instead — it's quicker and doesn't need a full campaign.

Who can find this campaign?

"Unlisted" isn't password-protected — anyone who has the link can still view and contribute. It just won't appear in the public browse list or map. You can change this later.

Campaign name One-line summary Full details — what's needed, background, description

City / area

Auto-filled from where you click on the map, so spelling stays consistent across campaigns. You can still edit it.

Photo (optional)

Or paste a photo URL instead.

Official contact / tip line (police non-emergency, animal control, family page, etc.)

Last seen location (optional) — click the map to place it

Don't show a last-seen location (e.g. last seen at home) — just use the city/area above

How precise is this pin?

A fuzzed pin shows an approximate circle on the map instead of an exact point — useful if the precise spot (like a home address) shouldn't be made public.

First click sets the "last seen" pin. Then click at least 3 more points to draw the active search boundary around it. Click "Undo last point" to fix mistakes.

Built-in safety guidance

Every campaign automatically displays standard safety guidance to contributors (don't approach, don't enter private property, call 911). You can add campaign-specific notes below — these appear alongside the standard guidance, not instead of it.

Campaign-specific safety notes (optional)

I understand this tool is for coordinating volunteer search efforts and is not a replacement for contacting police/911, and I will keep official guidance central to this campaign.
