Next, you’ll be asked to enter your fundraising page’s details such as your fundraising goal, end date, and headline. You can also enter a short URL—a shorter version of your fundraising page’s website address for easy sharing. Hit Finish to move on.

Overview

The first thing you see when you open the editor is the Overview tab. From here, you can view some cards with suggested next steps and access other content tabs. There are two content tabs that control the appearance and details of your fundraising page: the Story tab and the Details tab.

If this is your first time viewing the editor, we recommend completing the cards. They will help you edit your Story, make the first donation to your page, and ask for donations from friends and family. If you’ve already completed the cards, use the other sections in this guide to edit your page.

Tip: If you’ve completed the cards, you can reset them if you ever need a refresher. The first donation card is the only one that disappears since you can’t make the first donation twice.

Will my donors get an email when I add a new story to my page?

Is Your Browser Up-to-date?

A new and exciting update to the Shriners Children’s supporter dashboard has recently been launched.

To ensure that you have the best possible experience when updating your supporter information, credit card information, billing address, OR your profile picture (by the way, you look marvelous!), we recommend you use the most up-to-date versions of these web browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge.

More Information:

Please be aware that certain functions of our supporter dashboard are not supported in Internet Explorer (IE), resulting in a less-than-satisfactory user experience.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Donor Support Team.

How can I update my credit card information?

Updating your credit card information is simple.

As a donor, it is very important to us that you have full control of editing your recurring donation information, which is why we have made this possible directly within your donor profile. Below are steps on how to edit your recurring donation.

1. Login to your donor profile

Use this sign-in link.

If you do not remember setting this up, not to worry, this was created for you automatically the first time you donated or created a fundraising page through our "Create a Fundraising page". If you do not remember your password, simply click Forgot Password? at the login screen.

2. Edit recurring donation

Once you have access to your donor profile, click on the Recurring donations tab located on the left side of your profile dashboard. Here you will see your active recurring donations listed. If you are looking to edit your recurring donation, click "Manage Donation" you will then have the opportunity to edit your donation details and payment details or resend your receipts. If you are looking to update your credit card information you will need to re-enter all of your credit card information as we do not store credit cards. Once this is completed, the changes will take effect on the next scheduled billing date of your transaction. You can also cancel your recurring donation by scrolling to the bottom of the profile page.

Please note: For security reasons, we DO NOT store credit card information, so all credit card information will need to be re-entered if that is what you are looking to change as well.

If you have any questions please reach out to our support team.

My card keeps getting rejected. Why?

We use a secure payment processor gateway to ensure that your credit card information is safe. However, sometimes it may reject payments for unspecified reasons. We recommend contacting your issuing bank to understand why the charge was blocked.

You can also call us at 844-739-0849 or email; donorrelations@shrinenet.org and we can take your information over the phone to process the donation.

We appreciate your patience and understanding!
