Fundraising and Donations
Many of our events are affiliated with a charity. If an event is associated with a Charity there will be a Donations tab on the top of the race page. Participants simply need go to the Donations tab to set up a fundraising page. Once set up participants are ready to solicit friends and family members to support their participation in the event and their effort to fundraise for the charity.
This is what the fundraising request may look like when you receive it in your in-box:
