From within your fundraising dashboard, you can send emails asking for donations. Log in and click Fundraising > Ask for Donations. The email will contain a link to your fundraising page, where people can contribute with their credit card – easy!

Spread the word! Social media, emails or a humble conversation with your friends, family and workmates can be very successful ways to ask for support.
