Setting Up Your Fundraising Web Page

Create a FUND-RAISING Web Page

(in just minutes!!)

Create a Web page simply and easily by using the Global Village Web page design wizard at www.habitat.org/gv/create.html. Our wizard will customize a page for you, containing information about Habitat, Global Village, the specifics of YOUR trip, YOUR destination country/state, and forms for taking donations on-line or by mail for YOUR account!

Y Technical skills are not required (whew!)

Y The Web page is personalized with YOUR trip details and information (wow!) Y You can provide the Web address to family, friends, church groups and others to raise support and participation in the Global Village event (neat AWARENESS-raising tool also!)

Y E-mail a note about your GV trip to your friends and include the page’s address. Encourage them to visit your Web page. (how easy!!)

Y In fund-raising letters, refer the reader to your Web page for more information and an easy way to support you or your GV team (personal touch with techno advantages!)

Here's how, step-by-step:
Step 1: Copy and paste this address in your Web browser: www.habitat.org/gv/create.html Step 2: Enter your eight-digit Habitat ID number.
Step 3: Create a password for your page, so you can come back and edit it later if you'd like. Step 4: Enter your Global Village trip number, your name, and your e-mail address.
Step 5: They will create an example welcome message for your page. You can edit their message, or write a completely different message if you'd like.
Step 6: Your page is now ready! They'll give you the address at which your page is located. Copy this address down, so you can let friends and family know how to find your page.

You also can change the information you entered at any time. Just return to www.habitat.org/gv/create.html, enter your Habitat ID and password, and you can change your information and welcome message as needed. The system will update your page automatically with the your new information.
