Bike4Life FAQ:

 
1. How do I set up my fundraising page?
Log into your fundraise.com account. Once logged in, click manage on the upper right hand corner and double click the pencil icons to edit text and photos. Mark page as published. Call 857.445.4165 with any questions.
 
2. How should I fundraise? 
Start asking! Email ten of your closest friends and family members to each give between $10-$50. You'll raise over $200 before you know it. Give them the direct link to your fundraise.com page. Other fun ideas are bake sales, asking friends through social media and hanging up a sign at work. Don't forget to ask people 2-3 times, people want reminders.
 
3. Does the $100 fundraising minimum include the $20 registration fee?
