Once you select the ‘Become a Fundraiser’ tab, this screen will appear. You can sign up via your email OR you

cause! Your story is powerful, thank

supporters can choose to sponsor you as an individual (which will still contribute to the whole team total!) or
a supporter can choose to sponsor the whole team if they don’t want to choose between individuals!
