First off, congratulations! The whole team here at Unionly hopes it was a great success.
If your campaign or fundraiser has an end date or end goal, and it's been reached, then it might be time to take down your fundraiser.
If your fundraiser is the same from season to season, besides some design content or in name, you could always put your fundraiser into inactive for a bit and redo the required content and fields, retaining the same fundraiser.
However, if your fundraiser is truly over, then it's time to take down your fundraiser.
To delete a fundraiser, for any reason, you first navigate to your Fundraisers page on your Admin Dashboard. From there, click the blue View button in the bottom right of the desired Fundraiser. This will take you to overview page of your fundraiser. Click the Edit button below the fundraiser name to enter the editing view. In the editing view, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, and click the red Delete button. You'll receive a prompt asking you if you're sure you want to delete the fundraiser, and if you are, you can press yes.
With that, your fundraiser will be deleted from your landing page and your admin dashboard. On to the next one!
Great question! To build a fundraiser like this, you'll need to go to your Admin Dashboard view and click on Membership Management on the left side of the screen.
Our Fundraisers section is mainly for funds where donations of all sizes and amounts are encouraged and welcome.
If you want to set your fundraiser up so that there are tiered levels of donations, the best way to do this is through a similar process to setting up a dues page, which is done through Membership Management.
Once on the Membership Management page, you'll want to click the orange Add Dues Page button in the top right corner. This will start the process of creating a new dues/fundraising page.
Many of the fields you can now edit for this fundraiser are the same as if you were using the Fundraiser section, with some notable exceptions -- most importantly, the ability to add Dues Levels.
By utilizing the Dues Levels fields, you can create a fundraiser with tiered donation levels. Add as many levels as you need, and add the corresponding price.
By describing each donation level in the content section of the fundraiser page, you can give your members or any other potential donators a clear idea of which level they'd like to choose.
When done, simply click the blue Create Fund button and your tiered fundraiser will be ready to start receiving donations!
