A GivenGain event page enables any group (sporting event participants, company employees, clubs, families and friends, etc.) to fundraise together for charity.
The purpose of an event page is to provide a common page to the fundraising group where each group member can create their own, personal fundraising project for charity.
In addition, the page provides a detailed overview of a group's fundraising activities for a specific charity or charities and will include a leaderboard and total, displaying the online fundraising success of individual members (fundraisers) as well as a total of all donations received for that event.
An event page could allow any charity or can be set to accept only the preferred charities of the event. Fundraisers will then be able to select one or more charities to raise funds for, by creating their own fundraising project.
Examples of events pages:
- An official sporting event that has GivenGain as partner.
- The annual fun run of a company, where each employee (or department) can share their own page with friends and family members for donations.
- 3 friends on an informal 5-day cycling adventure.
What is the difference between an event page and a fundraising project? A fundraising project usually belongs to an individual, with their name and profile pic, and could also be linked to an event page, which usually reflects the name and pics of a group activity.
