What is a Friends for the Cure Personal Pledge Page?
A personal Friends for the Cure Pledge page is an online promotional tool for your use when asking your friends and family to join your Team or sponsor you by making a donation. Once you sign up for the Race online, by default, you will have a personal Friends for the Cure Pledge page created for you. You have the option of personalizing this page by going to your participant center (My Race Center). You will be able to import images, and customize text and the style/color layout of the page.
By default I have a personal page; do I have to change or use it?
Once you sign up for the Race online, by default, you will have a personal Friends for the Cure Pledge page created for you. You don’t have to make any changes to it to begin sending emails to your friends, family and coworkers. However, you can elect to make simple changes to create a compelling personalized Pledge page to attract and engage supporters. While you can spread the word using e-mail solicitations that are already written and available for your use, your personal campaign page can be your own creative expression of your commitment to the cause. Customize your page by selecting the layout and style that work best for you. Utilize the elements of text, photo and status indicators to their fullest advantage.
How do I change my personal fundraising goal?
First, you will need to login to your Race Center page. On the bottom right side of the Race Center home page is the location to modify your personal fundraising goal. Enter your new goal and submit the changes.
How can I see who has donated to me?
Login to the site using your username and password. Go to your Participant Center and click the “my progress” tab; this will allow you to view your donor list and any amounts having been donated.
What is the difference between making my personal page private or public?
By default, a personal page is Public, meaning your name will appear in the participant search list, and anyone accessing the site will be able to support you. Setting your personal page to Private means your name will not appear in the participant search list, and only people you personally invite will be able to support you.
Can I turn in my pledges on Race Day?
Absolutely, but amounts submitted after the deadline of noon, Tuesday, June 7, 2011 will not count towards the Friends for the Cure prizes. Print your online Race Center Pledge Program report, make sure your name is on it, and include your cash and check pledges. If you did not register online, please use our printed Pledge/Donation form or download a form and include cash and check pledges. Turn in your Pledge envelope at the Pledge tent, located in front of Soldiers' Memorial, on Race Day.
