Enter your organization's 99Pledges main page link where it says "{{main campaign page}}" - looks like this link - https://app.99pledges.com/fund/exampleann9496


Sample Parent Announcement with Participant Emails (EmailMe)

Dear Parents,

We are excited to streamline our fundraiser by going online. You will be able to reach out to friends and family by email, Facebook, and Twitter, instead of going door-to-door, tracking commitments, and handling checks. 

You will receive an email with a link to your participant's pledge page. You do not need to login or change anything. Simply make a donation for whatever you can, and share your participant's link with friends and family. We are shooting for 100% participation so no amount is too small. 

If you do not receive the email for whatever reason, simply search and find your participant's online pledge page here: {{main campaign page}}

Here is some sample sharing text:

" NAME is participating in a fundraiser, and would love your support. If you'd like to donate, you can do so online at the following link: YOUR PLEDGE PAGE URL

Thanks for your support!"

Sample Parent Announcement for Setup Option #3 - parents add their participant to the fundraiser (AddMe)
