Before we begin with the instructions for setting up your fundraising page, we first need to make sure you have a logon to the
donations site. If your team captain provided us with the roster information for your team, you should
have received an email from us with your userid and password. You can check to see if you've been set up by doing a search for your name on the
donations site. If
you're not set up or if you're set up but need your login information sent to you, please fill out your information
HERE and we'll create a logon for you.
For those of you with logons for the donations site, here's how you go about setting up your individual fundraising page:

Some important tips for this page:
- Set a goal in the "Donation Goal" field.
- This is incredibly important to your fundraising efforts
- Make your goal ambitious...people will try to help you reach it
- The "Fundraising Page Nickname" field is added to the url for your fundraising page
- Your fundraising link will be "http://epa.dude.llsevent.org/YourNickname"
- Be creative, but keep it short (e.g. "BillHatesCancer")
- Personalize the message
- Make it unique to you and people will be more likely to read it and donate
- While you personalize it, be sure to keep the main pieces of information so people know what the event is all about
- Upload a picture
- Give people something to look at when they visit your fundraising page
