Now jazz it up!
As it stands, your page is looking a little generic, so click 'Edit your page' to give it that personal touch that'll get friends, family and work colleagues chucking money at you like there's no tomorrow.
Now share the link to your page with your friends and family to get your fundraising off to a flyer!
- Edit tab: Here you can change your page title, fundraising target, story and all that jazz.
- We've automatically set the target to the minimum of £500, but over the years we've been constantly amazed by how generous people are - so don't set your sights too low!
- In the 'Your story' section, take a little time to explain what you're doing, where you'll be joining the ride and why you're taking part. Make it personal and passionate!
- Media tab: You can change the main cover photo to something awesome and personal (even a video!) You can also add extra photos to the gallery and, if you're feeling fruity, you might like to download a JustGiving fundraising gif or two
- Donations tab: This gives you a summary of your donations so far.
- If you are planning an event where people will give you cash, that's GREAT. Please gather all the coins, funnel them into your own account and then make one mega donation. This is way simpler admin and saves on JustGiving's transaction fees.
- Settings tab: Here you can personalise your thank you message and (quite cool) connect your page with other steely riders if you'd like to join forces for fundraising.
Now share the link to your page with your friends and family to get your fundraising off to a flyer!
