For organizers

Everything needed to run one clear campaign.

Choose the fundraising format, build a trustworthy public page, and manage the campaign from one workspace.

01

Create and verify your account

Start with a verified email and choose a Personal, Sports, or School campaign. Sports and school organizers can use a standard campaign or turn on Team Challenge.

02

Build the campaign page

Add a story, goal, banner, profile image, gallery, location, and up to five searchable tags. Connect the campaign with a verified nonprofit.

03

Publish and bring people in

Share the clean campaign link, post public updates, respond to comments, and invite trusted managers or editors when help is needed.

04

Manage progress and availability

See totals, donations, goals, and payout activity in the organizer portal. Activate, deactivate, preview, update, or archive the campaign without losing its records.

Team Challenges

One campaign. Personal links for every member.

Built for sports teams, schools, clubs, and groups that want shared progress with a little friendly competition.

  • Invite members securely. New members create their account directly from the invitation and receive their own fundraising portal.
  • Give everyone a personal link. Donations made through that link are attributed to the member and still count toward the shared campaign goal.
  • Keep public information limited. Only first names and fundraising progress appear on the public team board.
  • Help members promote. Members can copy their link, monitor individual results, and see how they are helping the team.
