What is a fundraising page?
A fundraising page is a special webpage with a URL that you can use to support a charity; an online collection tin.
Ask your team or colleagues to sponsor you by simply sharing the link to your fundraising page.
Anyone who makes a donation to your fundraising page can also leave a message of support.
Fundraising pages will be set up the Ambition Unlimited working group only.
What is a fundraising event?
A fundraising event enables you to collectively fundraise towards a team total (ie set up a Fundraising event) if you require multiple fundraising pages which will all contribute towards the Fundraising Event tally.
What can I fundraise for?
Fundraising pages allow you to raise funds for a charity via support from your colleagues and family and friends. For example, you could participate and fundraise for events like the Melbourne Marathon, Movember or the Sun Herald City2Surf or you may choose to set a personal challenge unrelated to a specific charity event.
