Starting an online event for your school - whether it is a runathon, walkathon, colour run or readathon - you've come to the right place!
After helping hundreds of schools with fundraising events for many years we know there is a right way and a wrong way to set up these events.
On mycause you can choose registration + fundraising or fundraising only
Only choose registration if you are charging a fee for participation in the event or if you have multiple activities to select. Otherwise, keep it simple and choose fundraising only.
Here are your three options for fundraising only:
ONE PAGE PER CLASS - "INDIVIDUAL" PAGES
ONE PER CLASS
In the page text you may paste the names of the students in that class
ADVANTAGE:
Quick set up
Use the csv file upload feature (may incur a fee)
DISADVANTAGE
Donors can only donate to the class not to an individual student
**We recommend this setup style
ONE PAGE PER CLASS "TEAM" PAGES.
ONE PER CLASS
The team name is the class name
Add each student with their email address
Or each student can add themselves at a later stage using their email
ADVANTAGE
Donors can donate to any student eg their child
A student can add themselves to the team with their email
DISADVANTAGE
Students need an email address (this may not be the most appropriate option for a primary school event)
ONE PAGE PER CLASS "FAMILY" PAGES.
ONE PER CLASS
The family name is the class name
Add each student – no email address required
ADVANTAGE
Donors can donate to any student eg their child
The event manager can create each group at set up by entering all the names
DISADVANTAGE
Requires each student to add themselves, or the event manager or group captain must add each member. This is time-consuming for little reward.
ONE PAGE PER STUDENT - "INDIVIDUAL" PAGES
Use the CSV file upload feature (will incur a fee)
Parent's search for their child to donate
You require a list of all students with name and class
