Setting Up Fundraising Tools

This article assumes that you have created your event, if not, review this guide first.

Find the Fundraising Feature

1. At the top of the home page, hover over "Organize" and select the event you wish to work with.

The 'Organize' dropdown menu on Eventeny, displaying 'My Events', 'Event Management Tools', 'About Eventeny', and 'Helpful Resources'.

2. This is your event dashboard. On the left sidebar, scroll down until you see the "Fundraising" feature. Click the arrow to see a list of fundraising sections.

'Fundraising' is highlighted under a dropdown menu on the left sidebar.



Create a Fundraising Goal

1. We will begin with the "Goals" section. It is the first on the fundraising feature.

The 'Goals' option is highlighted under 'Fundraising' in the left sidebar.

2. This is your goals page. To create a new goal, click the blue + New Goal button at the top right corner.

3. Here is where you will fill out the information for your goal such as a title, goal amount, and deadline. Additionally, you can also adjust your visibility settings (private vs public), choose your payout method (how you get paid), and whether or not you want contributors to donate a custom amount or have an Eventeny login.

At the bottom, write a description for your fundraising goal as well as post-contribution message for when contributors help you reach your goal.

4. When you create goals, they will populate back on the goals page. You can add more information to your goals such as questions to ask contributors and set amount levels. To do so, click the blue ✎ Edit Details button at the bottom of the goal.

Goal Options

1. Back on the goals page, you may notice that you can also toggle your goals to "live" mode on each individual goal. Further, there are also three additional options you can take advantage of directly above the blue ✎ Edit Details button: preview, share, and delete.

  • Preview: allows you to view your goal page from the point of view of a contributor.

  • Share: allows you to share the link to your fundraising goal with friends and family, as well as on social media.

  • Delete: allows you to delete your goal.
