Start by clicking the 'Story Page' option on the left-hand navigation menu. Be sure to toggle on the 'Edit Mode' option on the right-hand side of your screen.

Title (Required). The title of your peer-to-peer fundraising page will be one of the first pieces of information your friends and followers see. Your title should make it immediately clear who you are and what organization you're fundraising for. This section has a limit of 50 characters.

Cover Photo (Required). Your cover photo is the "face" of your peer-to-peer fundraiser page. Avoid using blurry or pixelated photos. The container for your cover photo is 1280 x 720 pixels, so your photo will need to be at least that big. If you upload a smaller photo, it may become distorted within the container, which affects the overall quality of your page. A photo with landscape orientation is best.

Goal. How much are you hoping to raise for your favorite nonprofit? How many donors are you looking to have? Make sure that you set an attainable goal that inspires your network to support your cause. Goals that are set too high or too low can have a demotivating affect on donors. Keep in mind that you an always adjust your goal as your campaign progresses!

Summary. When you link to your fundraiser on social media, this summary will also show below your over photo. There is a 100 character limit, so it's best to stick to the facts. In one sentence, why are you fundraising? The Story section of your peer-to-peer fundraiser page is the place to elaborate further.

Duration. Every fundraiser must come to an end and you want to be sure your donors know the last day to give!

Expense Breakdown. This section is typically utilized by organizations when they create an internal fundraiser. We recommend not utilizing this section for your peer-to-peer fundraising needs.

Story (Required). This is the most important part of your peer-to-peer fundraiser page! Having a well-written, compelling and heartfelt story is vital to running a successful peer-to-peer fundraising campaign. Mightycause has a user-friendly in-line editor that allows you to add photos, videos, links and more! There is a 5,000 character limit to this section.

Updates. Updates are a great way to share news about your campaign in real-time! You can use them to thank your donors for helping you hit a milestone and keep the people who've already supported you engaged in your campaign. Add an update anytime by selecting the updates tab and clicking 'Post an update'. This tab will not be visible to donors visiting your page if there are no updates yet.
