How do I create a fundraising activity ?
Click on the “Create a Campaign” button and fill in the blank fields. It is important to fill in as many fields as possible.
The first step is to register your basic information such as your username, your password, your email and your preferred language of correspondence.
The second step is to choose one of the four categories for your fundraiser : social, cultural, sporting or personal project.
- The category “Social Causes” includes everything that is considered humanitarian, solidarity or charity to a person or group of people in need.
- The category “Cultural Causes” targets events related to arts and literature, lifestyle, media, tradition and beliefs.
- The category “Sports Causes” aims at everything related to physical exercise that can be practiced as an individual or a group, or games that give rise to competition (excluding a social cause).
- The category “Personal Projects” includes every situation not covered by the three other categories. Raising money to help friends or family would be an example.
Still in the same step, you need to decide if you plan to raise funds with or without participants or with both teams and participants.
The third step is to register the name of your event, its due date and its description (maximum of 1000 characters).
The fourth step is to choose the donation options you want to offer to the people that are going to donate to your cause. It is also within this step that you will decide the target amount you would like to raise with your fundraising activity.
The fifth step is to choose the images that will represent your activity on the Yoyomolo website and to all your potential donors. Please note that the images you include in your description, must come from YOUR personal computer. It is important that you own the rights to the pictures you use. Yoyomolo has no image bank.
The sixth step is to connect your PayPal account. This will allow you to officialize the creation of your Yoyomolo account. It is necessary to have a PayPal account or it will be impossible for Yoyomolo to transfer money between your donors and your fundraising activity. You must create a PayPal account and then, return to Yoyomolo to enter your PayPal login information. Your PayPal account must be confirmed.
The seventh and final step is to enter all your personal information such as your address, zip code, city / province / country, phone number and email. It is important that you read and accept the terms and privacy policy, otherwise your account will not be functional. Lastly press the submit button to start your fundraising activity.
