FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

First you need to decide if you want to do a team challenge or just an individual challenge yourself.

Click on the ‘Sign Up’ button and follow the prompts to register. After setting up your fundraising page you can start to ask for donations from your family, friends and colleagues via Facebook or email - templates can be found under My Dashboard.

The event runs year round, starting on January 1, 2022. You can fundraise at any time and we will tally the funds raised at the end of December 2022.

If you selected a team challenge and made your event public, you have the ability to invite others to be part of your ‘team’ for fundraising purposes. Every member of your team is a fundraiser for your event in their own right and has their own fundraising page. That’s why you have an overall team fundraising goal and each fundraiser sets an individual goal.

Please note that inviting someone to be part of your fundraising team does NOT mean they have to attend your event. That’s completely up to you. Your event can even be ‘virtual’ in that it is simply established for assembling a team of fundraisers working towards a common goal.

My Wildlife Challenge has been created to support the world’s wonderful wildlife and to help ensure their survival in the wild.

While no one is obliged to give a donation, as the host of a team challenge it may be difficult to encourage your team mates and guests to make a donation if you don’t contribute yourself.

Not everyone who attends your event has to donate money, but your team leader may ask you to share the bill of putting on the event, particularly if it is held at a club venue or similar where a booking incurs costs.

You can e-mail your friends, family and colleagues directly from the fundraising dashboard by clicking on the 'Send Email’ tab. You can use the e-mail template provided or write your own message to request donations.
