The site is designed with families in mind. We encourage you to enter all participants on the same account.

What happens when I delete/add a participant to an existing account?
When you add a participant all donations will then be split between all the participants entered. When you delete a participant the donations will be split between the remaining participants. The deleted participant will be removed from all event reports and not receive any credit for raising any money.

It says waiting for payment but also says a donation went through?
This indicates that there were multiple donation attempts made. One donation was successful. Waiting for payment could indicate that a donation did not go through, the donor is sending in a check, or the donor made a per rep pledge. Under the Add Family and Friends and Track donations section, if you click on the donors name you can see the details of the transactions. If the donor is sending in a check, when the school receives the check they will mark the check as received and update the donors status. If the donor tried to make a donation via credit card it may indicate abandoned. This means the donor did not complete the credit card transaction and the donor needs to try again. If the donor made a per rep pledge, the donor will be notified at the end of the event via email how much their per rep donation will be.
Can I see more information about the donor?
Under the Add Family and Friends and Track donations section, click on the donors name to see the details of their account including request status and donation status.
I have more than one account, how can I combine them?
Once donation requests are sent out from multiple accounts they can not be combined. This would break the links and render the requests sent to donors unusable. The event can combine the money for participants with multiple accounts on their reports. If an account was not used and needs to be deleted you can press the help button and contact support.
I entered several emails for donors and I don’t see them listed?
The emails were not entered successfully or your internet connection did not allow them to register. Please enter them again. Things to look out for:
Make sure they are not a duplicate email or text number of one that is already entered.
The email must use a valid email format.
When you are sending text messages inside the US the country code is 1 (like dialing long distance). Add the area code between the () next to the number. Ex. (555)555-5555. When it is correct press send.
