Go to your Dashboard (your personal donation page)

Set your fundraising goal. You only have to raise $400 but we encourage you to go above and beyond. Set your goal higher, your family and friends will come through!

This is where you will create your page (think of it as your own DM Facebook page). You will see icons at the top that indicate all of the things you can do with your webpage.

• First, under the To Do section select "Design my Webpage" and then "Edit my Webpage."

• Type in a message in your "My Introduction" section and make all other changes you would like.

• Add pictures and/or change the color of your "Fundraising Thermometer"

• Click on "Save Changes" when you are finished

Once you have created your page, it’s time to email it out! You can select "Send Email" under the To Do list or you can use the address book option at the top of the page.

Here is a list of everyone you should email: Mom, Dad, Brothers, Sisters, Grandparents, Aunt’s, Uncle’s, Cousins, boss, co-workers, doctors, teachers, advisors, house mom, residence hall director, RA, graduate assistants, old employers, all of your friends, your friends parents, anyone you know with a business, and many more!

Don’t know an email address? Everyone loves snail mail. There are letters on the website that you can use to mail to family and friends.

• Make sure to include the link to your personal donation page to help get quicker and easier donations!

• Include your NAME and DANCER # on all return envelopes so you will get credit for money that you raise.

• Turn your checks or cash in to the Box Office in the Iowa Memorial Union and make sure to fill out the deposit form.

Don’t forget to send a special thank you to those who donate online to you. You can do this by selecting the Send Thank You icon.

Best of Luck! We know that you will go above and beyond to help us raise funds for hospitalized children treated at The University of Iowa Children’s Hospital through Children’s Miracle Network.
