Here, we’ve put together steps to creating your own giving page on JustGiving plus raising money on Facebook.
There are two websites you can choose from to create your online giving page. We recommend Just Giving, as it’s a well know online fundraising platform, but it’s best to choose the website you feel the most comfortable with.
So, read on to find out how to set up online giving pages on JustGiving and Facebook.
- Head to justgiving.com.
- Click ‘Start fundraising’.
- On the ‘I’m raising money for’ page, click ‘start fundraising’ in the charity section.
- If you already have a JustGiving account, enter your details, or click ‘sign up’ at the bottom of the box to create your account.
- When asked ‘Are you fundraising for a registered charity?’, select ‘Yes, continue’.
- Search for Leukaemia Care.
- Choose whether you’re taking part in an event, celebrating an occasion, fundraising in memory or doing your own thing.
- If you can’t see your event listed, select ‘Add your own’ at the bottom of the page and describe a bit more about your activity.
- Choose your web address – this is the link you’ll be sharing with friends and family when asking them to donate.
- Tick ‘Yes’ if you’re running a bake sale, or selling tickets to an event, raffle or auction. Donations to your Page won’t be eligible for Gift Aid.
- Click ‘Create your page’.
- Job done! Your Fundraising Page is now set up and ready to accept donations.
Setting up your Facebook fundraising page is easy. All you have to do is follow these steps:
- Head to www.facebook.com/fundraisers
- Click on ‘Raise money’
- Select ‘Charity’ and search for ‘Leukaemia Care’
- Set a fundraising goal and end date for the fundraiser
- Give your fundraiser a title, such as ‘Sponsored head shave’, and describe why you’re fundraising for LC
- Select an eye-catching photo to draw people to your fundraiser
- And you’re done! All you have to do is to share your page with friends and family.
