The easiest way to create an Individual Fundraising Page is by searching GivingEdge for the organization you'd like to support and clicking the Fundraise button on its profile. Once you've walked through the initial steps of setting up your page, you can customize your Individual Fundraising Page. While there are many ways to customize your fundraising page, only a few fields are required:

• Title: A few words that make clear what your fundraiser is all about.
• Image/Video: The “face” of your fundraiser. Use a clear image from your computer or mobile device, or import from Facebook. 
• Description: Share why you care about the organization you're supporting and why people should donate to your campaign. 
• Duration: This tool tells donors how long they have to donate until the campaign ends. This is simply a visual tool; once your fundraiser hits its end date, your campaign will continue. Keep in mind that only donations made during the Big Day of Giving donation window (April 23 through May 7) will count toward your nonprofit's Big Day of Giving total.

The following elements are not required to publish your fundraising page, but can help increase your fundraising page's success:

• Funding Goal: Add a goal to your page and inspire your networks to give to help you achieve it!
• Short Story: When you share your fundraiser on social media, this summary will display.
• Updates: Updates are a great way to share news about your campaign, thank your donors for helping you hit a milestone, and keep the people who’ve already supported you engaged in your campaign.
