Online Fundraising
What is a Personal Page? A Personal Page is an online promotional tool for your use when asking your friends and family to join your team or sponsor you by making a donation. Once you sign up for an event online, by default, you will have a personal page created for you. You have the option of personalizing this page by going to My Participant Center. You will be able to customize images and text. It is an easy and effective way to spread the word to everyone you know! Upload a photo of yourself or a loved one who’s had breast cancer.
By default I have a personal page, Do I have to change it? Once you sign up for an event online, by default, you will have a personal page created for you. A compelling personal page attracts and engages supporters. While you can spread the word using customized email messages, your personal page can be your own creative expression of your commitment to the cause. Utilize the elements of text, photo, and status indicators to their fullest advantage. It works!
How do I ask people to support my effort? Our easy to use online fundraising tool allows you to safely and securely upload email addresses of friends and family into your Making Strides address book. Using our sample emails, or creating your own, you can email friends asking them to join you as a participant, or support you with a donation.
How do I change my personal fundraising goal? Log in to the site using your username and password. Then click on My Participant Center. On the bottom right-hand side of the Participant Center is where you can modify your personal fundraising goal. Simply enter your new goal and submit the changes.
How do I change my team name, team division or team goal? Only the team leader has the ability to change the team name or team division. The team leader will need to log in to the site, click on My Walk Center, click the My Team Progress button on the top right, and update the team name, division, and goal on the Team Progress page.
How can I see who has donated to me? Log in to the site using your username and password, then click on My Participant Center. Click the My Progress tab; this will allow you to view your donor list and the amounts donated.
How can I see who is on my team? Log in to the site using your username and password, then click on My Participant Center. Click the Team Progress tab; this will allow you to view your team roster and the amounts raised by each team member.
What is the difference between making my Personal Page private or public? By default, a personal page is public, meaning your name will appear on the participant search list, and anyone accessing the site will be able to support you. Setting your personal page to "private" via the tools in My Participant Center means your name will not appear in the participant search list and only people you personally invite will be able to support you.
