You can now add your own events to your FirstGiving start page!  Here's how:

Log in to your FirstGiving nonprofit account , and then follow these steps:

1. Click on the Events tab.
2. Click "Create New Event" button in the upper right hand corner.
3. Fill out all the relevant information for your event. Anything marked with a red asterisk is mandatory.
4. If you are using online registration for the event, use the Registrant Types box to add different types of registration. Each Registration Type has a name and a description that you can fill in, as well as a price you’d like to charge for that registration category. You can also choose whether or not to have an option for participants to say they’ve already registered offline.
5. If you are using online registration for the event, you can ask your registrants customized questions.  We automatically ask everyone for their name, address, and email, but if you would like to collect additional information, you can add further questions.  If you are NOT using online registration for the event, when asked what information to collect from participants, choose Collect basic information. You can still choose to have custom registrant types, if you need them (for instance, adult registrants and child registrants, walkers and runners, etc. – and your custom registration types can have various different registration fees.
