Earth Gives

Become a Fundraiser

What is a Fundraiser?

Earth Gives Day would not be possible without the support of those who are dedicated to strengthening our community’s nonprofits and the mission that help our communities thrive. It's because of the many "earth givers" and community partners that we are able to continue doing what we do.

As an Earth Giver, create a Fundraiser and become a philanthropiest for your favorite organizations!

Find a Cause or use the search bar to find your favorite organizations to help raise funds for. Create Fundraisers for any of the approved Earth Gives Day participants. Can't find who you're looking for? Recruit them for next year and find a new mission to support!


Nonprofits must be registered by August.

Become a Fundraiser in 5 easy steps

Step 1: Create your Fundraiser

Find your favorite nonprofit using the website's search function. From the nonprofit's page, click the "Create a Fundraiser" button. Set your details! Add your title, your name, custom URL, and set your fundraiser goal. 


If you cannot find your favorite nonprofit, they have not registered to participate in Earth Gives Day. Check back at a later date or contact the nonprofit to confirm participation.

Step 2: Tell us your Fundraiser story!

Why does this organization matter to you and why should people give?

Step 3: Set a personalized image

Add a personal image for the Fundraiser! Include a photo of you and the organziation or the program you are advocating for.

Step 4: Review and Publish

Preview your profile before you push it live. Please note, once published, it can take up to 2 hours to appear live.

Step 5: Share!

Fundraisers are only successful when they are shared! Share the fundraising page to all social platforms. Copy your Fundraiser's unique URL to share with family, friends, and other contacts via email. Use your social circles to gain additional awareness.


Share when early giving beings and the week leading up to Earth Gives Day. Help your favorite nonprofits win additional Prize Fund dollars for bringing in the most donors or the most dollars to a Fundraiser.
