setting up an online fundraising page is the best way of gathering sponsorship or donations, and it\u2019s really easy to do.<\/p>

<\/div>

<\/h2>

justgiving.com<\/strong><\/p>

we recommend the justgiving<\/a><\/strong> platform for your online fundraising page. it\u2019s the most popular fundraising website in the uk and has been around since 2000 \u2013 making it the same age as our charity!<\/p>

you can use the page to tell people all about your challenge or event, and supporters can donate directly – meaning the funds come straight to us (no messing about with cheques or transfers!) and gift aid is claimed automatically.<\/p>

supporters can leave a personal message with their donation, or they can remain anonymous if they wish.<\/p>

you can also share your page link on your social media channels to encourage even more donations.<\/p>

<\/div>

here\u2019s how to set up your justgiving page and make the most of it:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>
  1. go to www.justgiving.com<\/a> and choose the \u2018raise money for charity\u2019 option on the homepage.<\/li>
  2. search beplay.asp uk<\/strong> in the list of charities and click \u2018select\u2019 when you see our logo. you\u2019ll then be prompted to log in or sign up for a free justgiving account.<\/li>
  3. now you\u2019ll be asked to choose what you\u2019re doing to raise money, with all sorts of options including taking part in an event, remembering someone special or \u2018doing your own thing\u2019 \u2013 whatever that may be!<\/li>
  4. provide details of your fundraiser and remember to tick the \u2018yes\u2019 box for the just giving question. this means your total will be automatically boosted by 25% at no extra cost to you or your supporters.<\/li>
  5. set a fundraising target. be realistic (it\u2019s a great feeling to know you\u2019ve reached or surpassed it!) but don\u2019t be afraid to challenge yourself either.<\/li>
  6. now you can personalise your page. add a photo if you wish and tell people why you are raising money and why you want them to support you.<\/li>
  7. share your page and start raising money!<\/li><\/ol>
    <\/div>

    our advice<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>
    • when you write your page, share your personal reasons for supporting our charity. including information beplay体育ios版下载 helps raise awareness of the condition too.<\/li>
    • posting regular updates via your just giving page will encourage people to donate more. let your supporters know how your preparation or training is going and add photos if you can.<\/li>
    • if you get cash donations directly from friends or family, you can add these as \u2018offline donations\u2019 to your page. don\u2019t forget to do this as you might reach your target earlier than you realise \u2013 allowing you to try and smash it even further!<\/li>
    • when your fundraiser is finished, please remember to log back in and \u2018close\u2019 your page. that automatically alerts us, and we can say thank you and send you a special certificate \ud83d\ude0a<\/li><\/ul>

      <\/p>

      like most online fundraising page providers, just giving takes a small amount of donations to cover processing fees.<\/em><\/p>

      <\/div>

      <\/h2>

      fundraising via facebook<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>

      if you\u2019re an online social butterfly, and you\u2019d prefer to keep everything in one place, setting up a fundraiser on facebook is a great way of gathering donations.<\/em><\/p>

      the fundraising page is connected to your profile, so you have a ready-made audience in your friends list, and it\u2019s really easy to share. <\/p>

      select us from the list of charitable organisations and have some fun choosing a cover photo, setting your target and providing the details of your challenge or event. just like any online fundraising page, sharing your personal reasons for supporting the pha uk will encourage donations.<\/p>

      facebook doesn\u2019t deduct anything from donations, so every penny goes to us. plus, your friends donate directly via facebook, meaning they don\u2019t have to go to another website after seeing your post.<\/p>

      and every time someone donates, it shows up in their friends\u2019 news feeds, drawing attention to your cause.<\/p>

      the only downside to using facebook as your fundraising page is that it makes it harder for those who don\u2019t use the social media platform to donate.<\/p>

      because facebook often changes how it does things, we haven\u2019t included a step-by-step guide to creating a page here. however, we promise it\u2019s really easy \u2013 just ask google, or use the search bar on your profile<\/em>.<\/p>

      <\/div>

      <\/p>

      as well as fundraising pages, you can also use facebook to collect donations in celebration of your birthday or other special occasion \u2013 without having to take on a challenge or organise an event. people often choose to ask for donations in lieu of cards and it\u2019s an excellent way of raising a little more money (and awareness of ph!) at special times of the year.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
