Bowl For Kids’ Sake (BFKS)

Online Registration Guide

Main Page

The Main Page of our BFKS site contains the progress meter for our fundraiser's overall goal, a list

of the five teams and five individuals who have raised the most for our fundraiser so far, and a list of

all of the donations made to our fundraiser so far.

Registration

The registration process has been broken down into several pages to help guide you as you register

for BFKS. The registration page can be accessed by clicking the “Register” link, or by clicking the

"Join My Team" link on a team's page.

When you click either of these links, the first part of the registration process asks you whether or not

you have participated in one of our online fundraisers before.

First Time Users Vs. Previous Users

If you indicate that you have not participated before and need to create a new account, the next page

will ask you to fill in your Name, Email, a Password, a Security Question and Answer, and your

contact information. If your information matches up with an existing account, that account will be

used. If that existing account already has an ID and Password, then the fundraiser site will already

have a login ID and Password, and it will direct you to go to the login screen to log in.

** See the “Login & Password Reset Pages” section below if you have lost your password.

The remaining pages in the registration process displays for all users regardless of whether you are

registering for the first time or as a past participant.

The next page allows you to fill in your fundraising goal for the fundraiser and enter a display name

for your page if you want it to show something other than your actual name.

The BFKS site has been set up for a $100 individual goal as a default. Constituents can increase this

amount if you think you can raise more.

Next, you can choose whether to register and not join a team, register and create a team, or register

and join an existing team. If you choose to join an existing team, you can search for that team using

the search box provided.

If you clicked the “Join My Team” link on a team page in order to join a particular team, then that

team's name will already be selected when your reach this step. If you choose to create a team, the

next page you will see allows you to enter the team's name and fundraising goal, and set a password

on the team if you’d like to control who can join the team.

When a user creates a team, this makes them the captain of that team. The team captain is

able to edit the team's page and profile, while team members who join the team after it has

been created cannot.

If you choose to join an existing team, the next page you will see shows the names and team captain

who are already registered on that team to help you determine if you have chosen the right team. If

the team is a private team, you will be prompted to enter the team password on this page.

The final page of the registration process displays a summary of all of the data that you have entered

so far. If the data looks correct, you can click Next to process the registration. Once the registration

process has been completed, you can log into the fundraiser site to edit your fundraising page.

Login & Password Reset Pages

Once you have registered, you can access the login page by clicking the Login link from the home

That brings you to a page where you can choose to create a new team or join an existing one.

Participants who are already on a team will see a “Change Teams” link instead of the “Join a Team”

link - that link allows users to change user settings to join a different existing team, create a new

team, or participate as a solo individual.

Fundraising Center Page

The Fundraising Center Page is the first page you will see each time you log into the fundraiser site.

It contains your current goal and progress, a list of your sponsorship donations in the current

fundraiser, and a list of previous fundraisers you have participated in with our organization.

If you are the captain of a team, you can also access the Team's Fundraising Center, which displays a

summary of each team members' goals and amounts raised, the overall team goal and progress, and a

list of sponsorship donations made to the team in the current fundraiser.

and edit the text and links on your page.

Team captains can also click the "Edit Team Page" link to upload a new image and edit the text and

page with no image displayed.

notification emails whenever someone makes a sponsorship donation toward your goal.

Team captains can also click the "Edit Team Profile" link to update the team's name, fundraising

goal, and privacy/password settings. The team captain can also choose whether or not they want to

receive notification emails whenever someone joins the team or makes a sponsorship donation

toward the team's goal. ** Remember the first person to register a Team or the Person who "creates"

a Team is the Team Captain by default.
