# User Profile

Your user profile is your individual digital identity on the Ma Earth platform. Just like any social media platform, it can include your name, links, photo, and bio, as well as your top causes and projects you've supported.

We highly recommend filling in your user profile, as this helps build credibility and trust with donors and potential supporters. People want to know about the people behind the work.

#### User Profile Visiblity

You can change your visibility settings at any time through your dashboard on Ma Earth. Making your user profile visible is optional, but recommended.

**Private**

If your user profile is set to "private" only your display name and profile image are visible.

**Public (recommended)**

Anyone can see your user profile on Ma Earth.
