Your Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Fundraising Dashboard is your hub for customizing your fundraising page, reaching out to supporters, and tracking your progress. Follow the steps below to make the most of your campaign!
Step 1: Navigate to your P2P Fundraising Dashboard
After logging in, locate the 'Your Personal Fundraisers' section on your Personal Dashboard and click on the 'Dashboard' button for the fundraising page you want to manage.
Step 2: Personalize with a Profile Picture
We recommend uploading an image of yourself as your profile picture - this will personalize your fundraising page and help folks easily recognize you. Click on the grey smiley to get started!
This will bring you to your 'Personal Settings', where you can use the image uploader to add your photo (and manage other basic details about yourself). Be sure to click the 'Save' button when you are finished!

Step 3: Tell Your Story
Step 3: Tell Your Story
Under the first tab of your Dashboard, you can share why you are fundraising:
choose a Fundraiser Display name (your first and last name by default)
write your personal story
set your fundraising goal
upload a custom image or add a video link from YouTube or Vimeo
Note: If both a custom image and a video link are provided, the video will display on your page.
OPTIONAL: You can also add your phone number - this will only be visible to authorized group administrators.

Step 5: Reach Out
Step 5: Reach Out
Within the third tab of your P2P Fundraising Dashboard, you can send personalized emails in plain text to your friends and family asking for donations.
Step 6: Share on Social Media
Step 6: Share on Social Media
Within the fourth tab of your P2P Fundraising Dashboard, you can cast a wider net and share your page on Facebook, X, or other social media sites with a direct link.
You can create a custom, shorter link that will be more easily recognized by your supporters by updating your 'Slug' under your 'Personal Settings'.
If you are fundraising for a Giving Day, you will have an added option in this tab to create a 'Short URL'. Once you customize your URL using this feature, you will no longer have the option to edit it, and you will need to reach out to our Support team if you need to make any changes.
Note: Short URLs may only contain letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores (no other special characters).
Step 7: Thank Your Donors
Step 7: Thank Your Donors
Within the final tab of your P2P Fundraising Dashboard is one of the most important steps you'll need to complete as a P2P fundraiser - thanking your donors. Let your donors know how their contribution made an impact by sending them an email from this page, or mark them as 'Thanked' if you show your appreciation another way.
Step 8: Monitor Your Progress
Step 8: Monitor Your Progress
To the right of your checklist is a progress box. Here, you will find statistics regarding your progress, a shareable link to your P2P fundraising page, and social share buttons. The first section highlights progress made towards your fundraising goal, donor numbers, how many emails you have sent, and how many days remain in your fundraiser.
Note: If your P2P Fundraiser is for a Giving Day, you will not have the option to create or join a team.
