This is where your fundraiser

tribute to a loved one

Your fundraiser can add updates

“In the hospital we just set up a page and that was

it. I really don’t remember doing it. We were kind

of on autopilot but because so many people

asked us what they could do this was the only

thing we could think of”

“The best thing for me was the link with Facebook.

That was the easiest thing”

Company Fundraising

Showcase their support

Track success
